Egg Production

[Mama_Owl_3]

I tried searching the forum for an answer, but I can't seem to find an answer. I am not sure if I should be concerned or not. I have four female ducks and they were doing great, I was getting 3 to 4 eggs a day no problem. All of a sudden, as in the last 3 days, I am lucky to get 1 egg at all. I have checked all of them for any signs of distress or possible egg binding. They all seem to be just fine, I have not changed their diet, they still get a variety of treats, fresh water daily w/ apple cider vinegar, and lots of forage time. Three of the females are 9 months and the 4th is 11 months. Any thoughts or suggestions?

Something must have changed.

Something must have changed.

The only thing that has changed and still ongoing is that I am redoing my backyard to make it more duck friendly and duck proof for my flower garden. They no longer have access to our in-ground pool because we are cleaning it out and getting it ready for the summer. We do not want them exposed to the pool chemicals. We did put in a large pond insert just for them, so they still have somewhere to swim, splash, and mate.
