Nope aint happenin. To young. Though sometimes the females holler more than males but not all the time. Also males legs are sometimes a little bigger and outgrow the females when aging but again not a for sure thing.

Gonna say they look like they might all be hens but the easiest way to tell is by sound. Hens will loudly quack while the males just mummer.

Yes. Drake's kinda go meep,meep. Hens quack

Same as above, drakes whisper, hens quack, though not always. When one of my drakes lost his companion many years ago he quacked louder than I've ever heard a duck quack before, it was very sad. Of course the curly tail gives it away once they reach sexual maturity. Lovely babies.

Yeah my mallard drakes could raise a ruckus at feeding time to let any nesting hens know to come out the woods. Generally they are still quieter.
