Khaki Campbells

Hey y’all I’ve got a khaki Campbell hen and a khaki/Cayuga/apple yard mix just the 2 are together. I went out to check on them and there was 5 eggs!! Is this normal?

A duck can lay an egg a day. So you may have missed seeing them for a bit. Many ducks will cover the eggs.

Not possible I went in 1 day and collected 5 eggs, all of the ones they had laid in their little nest they build and I came in the next day there were 5 more.

Did they all have a shell on them? It takes roughly 23 hours for a shell to be applied to an egg. They can lay multiple eggs without shells as that only takes about 2 hours to create.
