Thank you! I posted a video below, one of the ducks is making kind of a deeper quack and has for a few weeks which is the smaller brown one. The others still making a peep. From what I can tell their bills and feet all look similar.wow, what a nice combination, khaki apples ! they’re beautiful
if you can make a video of them making sounds we might be able to help you listen for quacks. i’m surprised they are all still peeping at 7 weeks. do any of them have bigger feet?
“Bills and feet can provide another subtle clue. Male ducks tend to have wider, flatter beaks than females, and coloration may differ depending on the breed. Drakes also tend to develop large, mature feet earlier than female ducklings.”
I was afraid of that. It just means I need to add more ducks and hope for more females!
I was only able to hatch/get three ducklings this summer. They all turned out to be drakes. I like your plan of just get more.
can you get them pre sexed so you don’t have to “hope”
since you likely have 3 drake already and the good ratio for drake to duck hen is 1 to 5 . if you have and keep all 3 drake that’s 15 duck hens
