Pekin ducks are the largest breed. Pekin ducks are all white, yellow bill on females and greenish bill on males. Pekin ducks don't quack very loud and are not prolific egg layers. They are raised mainly for meat. Next largest is the Rouen. My male Pekin has a yellow bill, but he is only 5 months old... maybe this is going to change? I know he is a male because of his voice, his curl in the tail and what he is doing to my female... if you know what I mean...

Is a male peking duck smaller than a female pekin duck?

I used to have two white crested ducks. In the animal kingdom usually the males are more lean and more decorative (such is the case with mane breed of fish); however, in my case, it was the male duck that was taller with a relatively larger structure. I say relatively larger, because there were only slight, but noticeable, differences. This may not be the case with other people. Let's see what others have to say.

Well, the male is like any other duck, it has curled tail feathers.As for the female , the ducks I own are mallard hens and a male and the females are brown witch means they are discolored, so maybe the female pekin duck is dicolored or they are white just without curled tail feathers. This is all I know but i hope it helped a bit.
