Is my Muscovy a male

[TeamRetic]

Thanks guys. The duck is very funny and it sure likes to wag its tail a lot and act pretty funny when I feed it. This duck has a lot more personality then the others I had. A very amusing duck.

It seems Pekins grow faster then muscovies. If one the Pekins end up with a loud quake, it is female for sure. It seems eaiser to sex Pekins when they get their voice then the Muscovies
I had a female Pekin and she was loud.

I'd say drake too..... I'd expect it's wings to be more feathered if a female, plus it does have that male look to it!

How to do tell the gender of them? I have two Pekins and two muscoveys, both roughly the same age (just a few days apart) the Pekins were tiny when we got them, now both are bigger than the muscoveys. The muscoveys really don't look like they've grown much. Although, today one went after my rooster because the rooster was eating their food... Hubby said that one was a female bc she was grouchy

Size, drakes are big, big feet, big legs, just big.. here in the back, all drakes, in the pool? left is the drake, right is the duck. All the same age, they are a clutch from March. You should see them now, she looks like a mini duck up against them lol



another pair of mine under 1yo.. drake to the right, duck to the left.

All Muscovy wag, it's a trait of them they start doing it as wee one, it's so dog like lol

Oh wow!! There is a huge difference!! They seem to be roughly the same size so I guess they're both females. I was kinda hoping for a male to get us some more ducklings! Well just have lots of eggs instead thanks so much!
