Questions about sexing my ducks

[Asht22lv]

I got 2 ducklings from Cal Ranch 5 weeks ago tomorrow! I am trying to figure out their breed and their sex. If anyone knows I would love some help! The black one has like a green tint to its black feathers. Also, I was wondering some tips on how to make them more friendly I had them in my bathtub for the first 4 weeks. And they would follow me around but, then I put them out with my other duck and chickens and now they just follow the adult female Pekin and run from us now if we get close to them. I posted some pix of them from a few weeks ago and current. Thank you so much for all of your help and posts! I love reading and learning about them!

Can you post a video of holding each one separately while they are making noise? That will help us tell!

the fawn/white one is an Indian runner and the black one may be too but I can't really see him in the recent picture.

As others have suggested, voice sexing will be your first chance at determining gender - ducks will quack, and drakes will have a more raspy voice. They are still too young for that. As they reach maturity the drakes will develop a tail curl.
