In English there are no masculine or feminine forms. English uses gender specific nouns for male or female, for example:
The gender specific noun for a female duck is hen.
The gender specific noun for a male duck is drake.
The noun 'duck' is a common gender noun as a word for a male or a female of the species.
It appears that regionally in the US a female duck may be referred to as a susie or grayduck, and a male as a greenhead, although this may specifically refer to mallards, and primarily along the Mississippi delta.

Why do Minnesotans say duck duck grey duck?
I grew up in Minnesota. In my mind, the two games are completely different (and Grey Duck is a LOT more fun than Goose) and should be able to coexist peacefully. In Duck Duck Goose, the goose is the obvious odd one out. It sounds different, it looks different, it feels different to say. In Duck Duck Grey Duck, a rule is added: every duck has an adjective (eg. blue duck, green duck, spotted duck, orange duck, yellow duck, grey duck). This adds elements of creativity and stealth to the game.
