Duck eggs.

[New Momma]

We have 2 male and 2 female ducks about 3 months of age I'm a new time chicken and duck owner so I have a few questions. Our ducks were supposed to be 1 male 3 female but that's not what we got. They should be laying eggs around this time right? We have them some nesting boxes but no eggs yet. We want ducklings so do I need to get an incubator? Will the ducks hatch them themselves isn't that what they do in the wild? Do ducks use nesting boxes? Should we put hay or wood chips for them to nest in? Those are my questions thanks for reading.

I doubt you will get eggs the summer, maybe on October! They are too young to breed. Good luck!

Thanks! Like I said we are WAY new to this my grandfather has ducks but he's so far away and doesn't have a phone so we can't call with questions.

You will need to get rid of a drake or get 4-5 more duck hens if you want to keep both drakes from abusing your girls.
