Male or Female Rouens?

[paxfarms]

I'm sure the one in the back is a male. He's getting his green head feathers in and has a very nice white collar. What about the other one though? Just today I noticed a white dot on the front of the neck in about the same place that the male has his collar. They are the same age, or roughly so. What do you think? Do I have 2 males? I've tried the voice thing, but I just can't tell the difference in any of them. It seems like their sounds change all the time. Or maybe I don't have an ear for it. I'm not sure.

I can't get the picture to upload, so, instead I made a blog post about it and posted the picture there. Here's the link: https://fifthdayfarm.blogspot.com/2018/11/rouen-ducks-male-or-female.html

They are both drakes.

You're right. I went out to do a closer inspection and the one that just has a spot also has a few green head feathers coming in. Dang. Dang. Dang!

I’m sorry that you didn’t get the answer you wanted. They are both very handsome though!

Ah. It's okay. It is what it is. I've got to find some more ducks now. I've got 3 males and only one female.
