Is it true...sexing Khaki Campbell ducklings

[Sunny Side Up]

I've had Khaki Campbell boys & girls, ducks & drakes, that had the little white spot on the front of their necks. I think it's hereditary, or just random. It's fairly easy to learn to vent-sex ducklings, or just wait several weeks for the girls to start quacking and the boys to rasp.

I don't think Khakis are supposed to have white on the neck, male or female! I've never seen that on my purebred Khaki ducklings, but I only have them from one line, so perhaps others do. It's cute, but not something I'd use to guess the sex.

A few of my ducks - taken years ago. Khaki Campbells and Welsh Harlequins.

i love your pic of your ducks.. Granny ...
i cant wait until i can see what mine will become.. I got them from Metzer Hatchery.. figured why take a gamble on a straight line it was 1 30 to sex them and now i have my babys and just love them..

I have one with a white spot that developed on its neck, and she is for sure a female.
