    Do Ducks lay eggs in the Winter?

    I have three domestic backyard ducks... two pekin females and one mallard male that I purchased as ducklings this spring and are now laying for the first time about 5-6months later. I would love to see some ducklings but I am new at this, so I have questions and concerns! :-( I am concerned...

    How much longer before these pekins are grown?

    It is Purina layena crumbles from tractor supply, for ducks or chickens.

    How much longer before these pekins are grown?

    They are just pets but they look skinny and smaller than most pekins. their wings are not done growing either. I raised some last year and they were more filled out, and wings were normal size. these guys have little wings that only lay halfway down their back I only had these a couple days...

    How much longer before these pekins are grown?

    Apparently my pekin ducks are four months old, I just got them couple days ago. Anyone have an idea about how much longer til they are completely full grown and fat looking? I leave their Purina layena crumble feed out in a bowl for them so they have constant access to it. I was worried they are...

    Pekin duck approx age??

    Thanks for the replies! So this is a normal size for four months? I am a little worried that they may be underweight for their age. I was pretty sure the ones I raised last year were fat looking by this age. How many more weeks do you think before these two are full grown and fat looking?

    Pekin duck approx age??

    Oh OK I wasn't sure, because I raised some last year and I could have sworn my pekins were full grown and fat looking in three months or so but maybe I remembered wrong lol When do you think they will look like that? I think they're cute now but kinda awkward looking, they're cuter to me when...

    New pets-4month old pekins-Very skiddish, run from me. Need advice please!

    Thanks for the advice! I will try the meal worms. I guess I just expected them to be a little more comfortable with people in general, since they were raised by a woman and her family...and since the ducks I raised liked to sit in my lap, eat from my hand, etc. I will be patient with these and...

    New pets-4month old pekins-Very skiddish, run from me. Need advice please!

    I just bought two four month old pekin from a woman who hatched and raised them, but they are skiddish and run from me. They panic when I try to pick them up or pet them or even offer food from my hand or a dish I put in front of them. I have raised ducks before and mine were very friendly to...
