Two Pekin ducks. Wanting to make sure they're fine. One's a bit quiet.

One is very quiet most of the time and falls asleep very, very easily and very often while the other one doesn't. It's notably smaller, too. It has no problem eating or drinking water at all, neither of them do from what I've observed. It also poops a lot less than the other one, which poops almost too often. Just want to make sure they're alright. Thanks. The quieter one is black/yellow while the larger one is completely yellow, as well.

Welcome to BYC!

Probably the duck with black and yellow is not a pekin, which would explain the size difference. Pekins grow a lot faster. Differences in vocalization are common among individuals and that doesn't concern me either.

How old are your ducks? Could you post a photo?

The only thing that might be concerning, in my opinion, is the sleepiness. Young ducklings do sleep a lot, but lethargy is always concerning in any age of duck.
