I'm glad they are feeling up to laying. I sure hope your temps drop below 100 soon, that's so miserable. Trying to keep a bird from going broody is a full time job...lol Do you have any male ducks at this time IM?

No, I don’t have a drake and that’s intentional. My son gets lots of babies and I don’t want to deal with that. The ducks seem to break easier than the chickens. Take their eggs and other than waiting a few days for more eggs that seems to do it. I’ve had broody chickens that sat in empty nests or on a single egg at times. Crazies
