Sexing question

[Oddyse]

Hey guys, at what age can you determine the sex of a duck? Thanks in advance for any help

 

[Oddyse]

Anyone?

you can vent sex them the day(s) olds (if you are brave enough to attempt it). after that your next shot if voice sexing when they are umm, somewhere around 6+ weeks old. still dont know? time to look for drake feathers after they molt their teen feathers and get their nuptial plumage. HTH!

 

[Oddyse]

How do I vent sex them? Or should I leave it to google to tell me?

I attempted to vent sex my three SR WH and out of the 3 i got 1 right

it takes a lot of practice

ooooooook! I wont be trying that then! Il just wait till they grow up a bit first!

I will attempt to vent sex the ducklings that I am expecting but I wont count on my accuracy on how many females I get

there is no wrongly identifying a male, a penis is a penis lol

I had a go , but they seemed like they really didnt like it so i stopped and gave them big cuddles instead, guess I just gotta wait to find out now, I hope they are female though, then I can keep them both!
