are approx. 9 weeks old. We have 6 total. This is our first time with ducks. I know I need to be patient to see what we have....but I am afraid I am seeing too many possible male traits emerging. Could you look at these pics and tell me you gender thoughts? Thanks!
I see for sure two that I would bet money on are likely hens, and a most definite drake in the bunch. Give them a bit more time. I was able to call my drakes for sure at about three months. But I also use to purposely stir them up a bit to get their excited quacks in hopes of being able to notice a difference. But in all reality, I could tell very early. Even as tiny ducklings, my drake was never overly vocal, barely doing much more than peeping, while the females would just vocalize over any little thing.
