Well that is remarkable. I have raised a lot of these through the years and never have I seen that. Do your Mallards fly? The birds here can go almost straight up when they launch. The point being that the wild type don't lay like that. Mallards will mate with anything, so a lot of the Mallards in the wild are hybrids and that would affect laying.Walt, a may have an anomaly then... My mallard, Bella, started laying eggs last fall. She had laid an egg every day since then except one - she outlays every one of my chickens. She lays beautiful, great big eggs, and even lays them in one of my chicken's nests, so they stay nice and clean.
Too cute! Mine are do the same thing. The girls are sitting in their holes, but not laying any eggs. I'm hoping though.
