Sex feathers

[Silkiechicken66]

How can I tell if my ducks are drakes or not? They’re 3 months old, some look like it could get it cause a feather is slightly raised but that’s it. They sure act like drakes though.

When I raised ducks... seems like the raspy voice came before the curly tail feathers. And I think Muscovy ducks don't get the curly tail.

Nice loud quack is hen. Whisper low quack, drake.

ETA: Pics always welcome!

I know perkins have the sex feather and muscovy will not. Although with muscovy you will notice a large size difference between a drake and hen.
I've had pekins in the past and currently have muscovy.

I’ll get some photos in a bit. They are magpie ducks.
