Hi! I’m fairly convinced my two call ducks are males. They are super quiet so that’s how I made my determination. One is blue pastel, the bill is turning green (7 weeks) but the pastel is orange billed. These pictures are at 7 weeks or so thx

Being quiet isn't an accurate way to determine sex in ducks. I have a couple females who rarely make a sound and one who I've only ever heard quack maybe 5 times total and she's 3 years old. When they do make a peep or quack does it sound more froggy and raspy (males) or more goose like and honky? Just by looking at them I would guess that you have a pair.
 
I am also wondering if anyone can say what sex my two khaki campbells are. I was pretty sure that the larger one with the lighter bill and darker tail was a drake and the other a female.
