Welsh Harlequin

When I look up the golden welsh harliquin I have seen many with orange or yellow orange bills. ????


Yes, but by the standard they shouldn't be. In fact, gold phase isn't an accepted color at all, only silver is.

My hen just hatched these ducklings. Male or female?

Bill sexing is only 70 to 90 percent accurate, depending on what line you have, and only one picture is showing, but this one, if the sexing is accurate, is a female.
 
A question for all in here who are hatching welsh harlequins, what day of incubation are they hatching on for you? Someone has said to me that they are supposed to take only 23 days to hatch. I have never had any duck hatch that early of any breed.

Mine hatch 1 or 2 days early when I figure 28 days, so I've set my calendar to 27 days to compensate. My turkeys also often hatch a day early. I just set the ducks and turkeys a day after the chicken eggs to better coordinate the hatches.
