Well my mismatched flock of tsc ducklings turned out to be 1 black Swede, 1 Rouen, 1 fawn Pekin hybrid (that looks more like a pekin except for color) and 1 fawn pekin crested that looks like a goofy b*****d. Anyway, I had my suspicions because I heard some Drake sounds but I thought it was only one of them. Until today. They all staged a massive jailbreak and I woke up to them running around the property quacking their butts off, that's when I saw 3 of them are sprouting drake feathers. So now I know for sure only the Rouen is female. So far for ducks and chicks I'm running 25% females on straight runs, figures...
They are about 3 months old now and still get along like a silly bunch of goofballs. When can I anticipate having problems with there being a 3:1 male ratio so I can figure out how to tactfully deal with it since I specifically got them for the kids.
