I switched out the itty bitty duck pond and put our 3 rouens into a regular sized kiddie pool last night. (Maybe a foot deep) They are all about 7-8 months old. When we were getting ready for bed I heard a sound like somebody grinding the heck out of an old truck's gears, but with a duck-like overtone to it. I checked on them and the drake had a smug expression and the one girl was in the pool with him looking sheepish. Are they old enough to be breeding? Neither girl is laying eggs.
They can have sex way before they are even ready to lay eggs. Even though yours are old enough for laying eggs.
