There is a difference in the quack but I ciuld never get it. The males will have a curled/curved tail.

Enjoy them they are great fun  :D
Experience is what you get when you didn't get what you wanted!!

You can sex them at a day old although it's unreliable if you're a beginner.  Mine all seemed to quack to start with then the drake got what sounded like a sore throat then the telltale curly tail came!
