@sophiafur

What kind of sounds does it make?

Thanks @Isaac 0
I don't like to click random links (especially on work computer)

My guess would be male

I lean towards a male also , but that's just going off from bill color, a brief description of "its' voice might be good. I've found the black/green on the head isn't the most reliable way of sexing with my Snowy Calls ( I assume it could be applied with WH?)

Here is a photo of a Snowy Call Female, she quacks. The black on the head slowly diminishes as they age.

Different Female.

Any ideas on mine? Around 10 weeks old.

They look to be males. No quacks, from them correct?

I have two 10 week olds which are pictured above and two 6-7 week olds that are not pictured. They younger ones were supposed to be females and they started quacking way before the ducks pictured. Their head is not as dark and their bill isn't yellow either. The 10 week olds are quacking though.

These are the "girls", the picture was taken 2 weeks ago.
