We have some ducks that were born on March 21st (my birthday!), so their about nine weeks old or so. We have two Black Swedish and two mixes, one of which has a pom-pom. Names:
LOUD Black Swedish with black beak: Kuro (Japanese word for black)
Quiet Black Swedish with peach beak: Momo (Japanese word for peach)
LOUD mix-breed with brown feathers with white spots but has a lot of white: Baka (Japanese word for idiot)
Peeping mix-breed with Runner in it that looks like Baka, only with darker brown: Kupo (little creatures called Moogles from a video-game with red pom-poms that say Kupo after every sentence.)
Whew! Now that you know a little about the quakers, here's my problem:
I don't know if my Black Sweds are male or female. We know that Baka is a female because she's so loud, but we can't tell with Kuro and Momo. Kuro is very loud, but Momo is quiet. I think the answer to this question will help:
When do the Black Sweds get their adult colors and feathers in? If I know this, I think I can tell. If we only have one female, we'll have to get more, I think. Maybe Muscoveys would be good; after all, they'll kill snakes.
I'll load some pics when I get them back. Thanks a lot everybody!
See y'all! (Country's my way, y'all!!)
