    Where do ducks like to lay their eggs?

    My ducks are still very young and not going to be laying for another ten weeks or so, but I am wondering if I will need to provide them some kind of laying box or prepare a special nesting or laying area? Please tell me about and/or post a picture of your ducks' laying area.
