Wait...I thought you already had Cayugas....?

Lay at 21-27 weeks old...mate all the time after they get their feathers (like 12-13 weeks). 1 Male to 3-9 Females.

The ULTIMATE list of DUCK Treats and Supplements...

I suggest you go to your local library and get the book "Storey's Guide to Raising Ducks"

It has all this info and way more....by far the best duck book out there....

You should already know all these questions BEFORE you get any ducks my young patawan. The answers you seek are already posted in BYC pages and threads. Seek and you will find.
