    Perkins laying eggs without a shell

    I hadn’t thought of that Pekins are bred for meat. I will try the calcium to see if that helps. Thank you for your reply.

    Pekin Duck Club!

    Thank you I have just seperated them one of them made no noise at all. The other two I think one is a boy and the other a girl. I will just have to be patient and wait to see if more of them start to lay or a drake feather appears.

    Pekin Ducks

    One of them sounds like a honk and the other two a quack. I would have thought if I had females they would have started laying of a male their drake feather would be visible.
