The female is called the duck or the hen, and a male duck is called a drake. The difference in appearance is when the ducks get older, the drakes tail feather curls up. This feather is called a drake feather. The hen's feathers stay flat, and also, the hens lay eggs, whether they're fertilized or not. Also, in many cases, the drakes coloring is a lot brighter.
