I got my first ducks yesterday. Anyone know what breed? And maybe gender? One stands taller and has a bigger head, and the other one has a skinnier body and stands more level. Does that mean one of each? It’s probably too early to tell😅 if you need certain pics to tell breed or gender please let me know. Also, they can live with chickens right? Thanks!!

Such cuties! I am fairly certain they are Blue Swedish ducklings. Still to young to tell the gender. At about 6-10 weeks old, you can listen to their voices. If they are fairly chatty and have a distinct "quack quack" they are girls. If they are less noisy, quieter, and have a raspy "whap whap" it's a drake. When they are 10+ they will get the males will get drake feathers.
