Well at least you researched before you brought them home. lol I literally jumped in head first, brought them home and THEN researched. They have been a blast to raise, and it was really cool watching them change and grow up.

I made RC mad at me today. He stole a whole peice of bread, so I picked him up, talked to him for about 1 minute, then set him back down. lol Since then he has been snubbing me, beak in air and all! lol Im pretty sure he will get over it.

Can you tell the gender of my 'scovies heres a pic of all of them with the female pointed out. Is that the only female or is there another one and how do you tell the gender???

Generally the drakelets will outgrow the ducklets by 8 weeks. Also, drakelets will have much bigger feet & a larger, heavier shaped head.

It's hard to tell by your picture but it looks like you have 4 drakes.
I can't really tell much about the one laying down w/it's back towards us. Is it the same size as the other three close to it?
The two laying down facing us are definitely drakes. Try to get a closer pic of them w/their feet showing and standing in profile if possible.

Poor Duke is in molt. He looks like a bad taxidermy job!

This is after his daily bath.
