My duck has been nesting almost always every day for atleast 3-4 days now but no eggs, she always goes back to the same spot, and she’s made a decent nest out of hay, I do have a drake and two other females, but from what I’ve seen I don’t know if any of them actually know how to mate? The drake does go for them and they squat down if on land, but he never actually gets on them, don’t know if it’s completely relevant but putt it here just incase.
The nest is inside the chook house in one of the nesting boxes on the ground, both her and one of the others lay eggs there when they do lay, which isn’t often, maybe one a day for both at most for 3-4 days in a row.
I dont believe she’s egg bound, as she does get up and run around to get food and water occasionally, and doesn’t walk or act funny when she does.
Don’t really know everything that’s relevant but she’s atleast a year or so old and a runner duck.
