My Indian runners were hatchery ducklings I ordered back April of 2022 so they're almost a year old now I have 1 black drak...2 black hens 1 fawn and white hen and one Grey or blue hen...they stopped laying back in October not a single egg for months until yesterday I walk out and find 2 eggs one in their pool and one in a nest in their heated hut...can anyone tell me why they started laying again weather this week has been between 40 and 60 I was thinking that had a little something to do with it but not 100 percent sure...also I will add pics of my flock shortly....their lot btw is a 20ft by 20 ft lot with a 4ft by 12ft hut outside it with a tunnel access point....the fencing around it is a 6ft tall chicken wire with wooden posts and too and bottom frame..,I keep straw in their hut about 2ft deep at all times and their lot keeps a constant 6 to 10 inches of straw in it all over bc they love digging thru the straw to eat worms and bugs that thrive in the damp darkness of it
