Rouen Duck thread

[MaeDay]

Can anyone confirm the breed of my ducks? The feed store said the brown babies were Rouen and the one yellow duck is a mallard. They're now a month and a week old, almost fully feathered. They're barely beginning to honk, no curled tail feathers. There are only three. They're pictured below from when they were two days old until yesterday at a month and a week old.

Also, at a month and a week old, is it too soon to confirm they're female?

By that age you should be able to voice sex them. The females quack and honk loud while males kinda rasp. Plus I found that females are usually a lot more talkative from hatch on!

They look like Rouens, or a mixed breed.

Try grabbing the tail feathers lightly and you should get a honk or a raspy sound.

Honky loud quack = female

Thank you for your replies!

Telhe two darker ducks have more of a honk and the one that was supposed to be a mallard is still peeping.
