How do ducks divide male and female?

1. Shape observation method

This method of distinguishing male and female ducks is aimed at young ducks. the male duck with a larger head, a more round body and a sharp tail should be the male duck. On the other hand, if the head looks small and the body is relatively flat, the tail should be the female duck.

2. Tail observation

We drag the duck to our hands and press our thumbs slightly on the duck's back to observe the state of the duck's tail. The duck with its tail up is usually the female duck, on the contrary, if the tail is down, it should be the male duck.

3. Anal sensation

We dragged the duckling on the palm of our hand, pressed the thumb on the back of the duckling, and touched the bottom of the duckling's anus with our hands. If we can feel a granular bulge, it should be a male duck, and if not, it is a female duck.

4. Open tube sensation method

We hold the duckling, hold the back of the duckling neck with our hands, let the duckling neck swing up and down, and then touch the duckling crop. If we can touch the bulge, it should be a male duck, and what we don't have is a female duck.

5. Feather discrimination

Adult ducks, if their feathers are brightly colored and have a ring of bright green feathers on their necks, are male ducks. Adult female ducks are not as bright as male ducks, and they will not have that circle of bright feathers on their necks.

6. Sound discrimination

For adult ducks, we can also distinguish between male and female by their voice, and use their hands to clip the neck of the main duck and let it bark. Generally speaking, the voice of the male duck is hoarse and magnetic, while the voice of the female duck is clearer.
