I got 3 Welsh Harlequin ducklings today, i thought that dark bills meant it was a girl and light billed was a boy, so i got 1 "boy" and 2 "girls", i got home to double check and it turned out it was the other way around, can they all still live together, even when they are fully grown? Do i need to somehow get another female?
Thanks

I would be interested to know the answer to this also. I have a year old girl and two babies, I'm hoping at least one is a girl if not both. One of them made a different sound today sort of a quack, but it wasn't loud enough to tell. I guess I should go to you tube and see if there is a video on the different sounds they make.
 
I would say that is not the ideal ratio of males to females. Try to get more females. Whether or not this ratio causes severe problems depends on the individual birds. I would say not to worry about until the ducks start breeding. Depending on how old they are now, this might not happen until next year. You have some time to find another hen or two.
