I got 5/6 right with my cayugas at about 6 weeks last time - I just picked up each one and waited until they made a noise (couldn't tell who was making which noise when they were running around). If it was low, duck, if squeak, drake. But one drake must have managed a low quacky sort of noise because I thought I had 4:2 ducks to drakes and it turned out to be 3 all. Some of the silver appleyards I've had huge problems with - the first one I wasn't sure about for 6 months when his plumage finally settled down. I saw an ad on eBay the other day for silver appleyard hatching eggs that claimed they were autosexing which I'd never heard before but if she's managed to produce an autosexing strain, that might be worth investigating!
