I got 4 pekin ducklings in April. I have been trying to figure out who is male and who is female and I thought I had 2 and 2. 2 of them are a bit smaller and make a lot more noise (female?) and 2 are larger. 1 of the larger guys can hardly even quack--it's this faint little squeak--and the other one makes some noise but not nearly as much as the other 2. They started laying eggs in August and there would be 1 or 2 a day. Now there are 3-4 eggs a day...I am wondering if 2 females could lay that many or if there is at least one more that's a female?
Also, they have a pond that's a stock tank (6' diameter) but it's 3' high. I have to put them in it and then take them out. I'd love to be able to build a ramp or something so they could get in and out easily. Does anyone have suggestions on how to go about doing that?
Thanks
