Hi everyone I have two rouen ducks, the first one I got turned out to be a drake, now we have another one and was wondering if anyone can tell if this one is boy or girl, he/she is 6 weeks old this week.hopefully i will get a photo up to show you. Yay I did it if another boy i guess i will have to find a couple of girlfriends for them

I'm not sure how to tell ducks apart very well. Is it developing a quack?

Nice looking ducks!

Kind of hard to say when they're that age, but I'm going to guess female.

And my fingers are crossed for you. If it is female and you become a duckaholic like some of us, just please remember you need to add females before adding any more drakes.

Is it quacking? Here are some sound bites you can listen to. Males usually are peeping at this age while females should be starting to quack.http://www.majesticwaterfowl.org/artquacks.htm Hopefully it is a girl, if so you will more than likely still need more so she doesn't get over mated. If it turns out to be a boy, usually they will do fine together without females.
