What gender are my ducklings?

[Esme2345]

Hello everyone! I hatched 4 Pekin ducklings about 2 days ago. 2 of them have quite light pinkish bills and 2 have more orange ones. Does this determine gender or health? I’ve never hatched ducks before so I’m very curious. Thanks

I don't believe that's indicative of anything and is an individual trait. Do you have pictures?

I have never noticed bill color being a good indicator of gender at that young of an age. To my knowledge, bill color can vary for several reasons such as, genetics, light exposure, breed, etc.

You can post some pictures if you'd like.

all my pekin has different colored bills as babies (bright orange, light orange, and pink) they all ended up being drakes
