They're a pair of Pekin ducks which I picked up from the "who knows what" bin at the local farm store. They're ROUGHLY 4 weeks old. Are just starting to get their pin feathers in their wings. One of them is fairly mellow, easy to pet and is getting a more pronounces [did sound like a broken squeaky toy] quack. The other however is skittish and seems to still have that little bird high pitch squeak going on.

Soooo. I'm under the assumption that I have a male and a female, that the quacking one is indeed female and that the squeaking sissy is the male. Would I be correct in that? The squeaking sissy is also slightly larger.

Foo.. Was hoping for two females. Roll of the dice, I guess.
 
I heard one of my making a hissing noise the last couple of days, my dog stays in the yard and he was walking by and one hissed! They are from the feed store and about 4 weeks old..I have heard a sort of quack when they get real excited but mainly peeps so far.
