I'd like some Holstein Heifer hatching eggs. Willing to pay top dollar.

LoL missing peepee! Maybe it's a shim? There have been cases of them in ducks before. The coloring screams drake though with that green coming in and the chest coloring.

Yes I have vent sexed all my ducks and have been successful at all of them except this one. I have been so confused on it. I have always thought it was a girl until people started saying it was a drake because of the head color. So I would vent check again, no pee pee. I have looked and Looked and looked, NO PEE PEE.

Also the duck does not quack at all. just a soft soft peep still. Dante, the Black Sweden, he quacks LOUD. This WH is really small too. I am so confused......

I want to get this duck on CL. Drake or hen..... I can not be sure

 

[CelticOaksFarm]

Still, you answered yourself. Drakes aren't loud like ducks. So with the coloring and the soft voice it has to be a drake

Well, it would be super cool if Caboose turned out to be a girl. It seems weird to hear Caboose develop a voice at 5 weeks, because Squeak has been sounding like an adult drake and Twist has been a LOUD mouthed whoopie cushion non-stop quacker since 3 weeks old.

I will get pics of the 4 remaining pidgey eggs.... as well as an example of an Aurora ancona egg set same day. Maybe you can tell me what is going on inside the questionable eggs.

Hope hubby is at least feeling better, even if doctors haven't figured out what's going on yet.
