Duck stopped laying during Summer and still nothing

[Quacks10]

Our year and a half old Magpie was a great layer until the latter part of Summer. She took a couple breaks, but we haven't had any eggs in months! We live in a very mild climate, so our birds lay year-round. She's not molting, and now she prefers to be way from our Pekin drake alone or near us. Is it possible the drake injured her internally? We've never had this had before with any of our birds.

you sure she isn't laying in a hidden nest?

Than was my first thought...We have a fenced in yard. I've looked all around and haven't seen anything.

I do too...I thought surely they weren't laying somewhere other than the coop, but I discovered my bantam sultan's nest just recently (I Lost her and the rest of my flock to a predator last year). She had more than ten eggs in it

I would rather believe that your girl is hiding eggs somewhere rather than think something is wrong with her

I hope you figure it out, and keep us updated.
