Is my Peking/Kaki Campbell Cross Sex linked?

Hi!

So all those ducklings look to be chocolate, which is interesting because a chocolate male can only come from chocolate moms. When breeding, was the drake the khaki campbell, or the hens?

You don't get ducklings that are sex-linked with feather patterns, but you CAN get ducklings that are sex linked by down color.

The hen was Kaki Campbell and the drake was Peking. What would happen if the hen was the Peking and the drake was Kaki Campbell

Ah, so then that's not a sex link. The other way around it might have been, depending on what color genetics the pekin has that you can't see because she's white.

I bred my ducklings for the first time, and noticed that when I breed my Peking’s and Kaki Campbell together the ducklings had 2 different patterns. I was wondering could the mix be an auto-sex breed.

The duckling with the spot was a hen an the one with the stripes was male .

This really caught my eye
My Pekin is mom and dad is my khaki
These are my babies and the two darker ones now sound like drakes and my 2 lighter ones sound like girls The last pic is of the younger one mom was sitting on so it’s 3 weeks younger then the ones I incubated
They all had the 4 spots on the back and all had the face lines that looked identical. Two have kept a white neckline one of each colour and the other two have not.
I have to get your input on this
