How Many Eggs Did You Get Today?

Still getting a Karen egg every day, she is getting squeakier and squeakier

Is she eating enough Oyster Shells?

As far as I know she is. The three older ducks go through a lot of shell . The four younger ones spill much more than they eat. I need a heavier bowl for them.

Protein rich food - definitely!

I may be underestimating that factor just a bit.
Bizarre thing about the injured duck was that it was barely eating for the first few days. Maybe the injury did have an influence on egg production?
Daisy laid an egg Thursday for four in a row. She's eating like a mad woman now!

For the first time since early January there are three eggs!

My ducks completely stopped laying when it got super-cold, and they just started again this week--first one egg for three or four days, and then two, and then four. YEAH! Duck eggs again!

This is my first time with eggs and I was super excited to find one of my gals laid her first one about 6 days ago. Been giving an egg everyday. Today was also a rather exciting day as another one started to lay. Two eggs! Now Im just waiting for my 4 other gals. I hope to figure out who is laying exactly.

I have screwed a 4" PVC pipe with a 90° and a 45° elbow to one of the posts and use it for the OYS. I just need a lid for the top.

I see the pine pellets in the nest... how does that work for you? Cleaner eggs? Smell?

That’s actually the food carry bucket, but I use the pellets in the coop I like them. Less smell than pine flakes and usually I can rake off the top layer and pellets underneath are fine. Usually have to do a full charge every few months and a partial every month if I keep up on it and no extra water gets in some how

Ok, Daisy the indoor duck layed one this morning for five in a row.

One of the Blues layed an egg too, so one egg that can be eaten.
