Hi I got 2 khaki campbell ducks 2 months ago I know that they are fully grown by there markings. My parents have seen them mating but still no eggs.i know that she isn't hiding them anywhere because I have literally checked everywhere.

I try as hard as I can to keep the water clean, I feed them the right food ( I think :P ) duck pellets and a little bit of chick starter and occasionally some peas and grapes, I keep there food off the ground so that mice can't get to it ( I have seen them in the pen but I'm going to set up some enclosed traps) , I might scare them a bit when I go in to clean there water and get new food, they might still be adjusting to there new home- there old home was at a farm with a big dam and lots of other ducks.

There the only reasons I can think of why she isn't laying eggs .
Please tell me why she isn't and how I can help her to.

Thanks :)

She may still not be old enough. Is she at least six months old? She may also not be receiving enough light. It take 14 hours of light a say to stimulate ducks into laying. If they are stressed they may not lay. Give her some time to adjust.
