How old are your birds? If they are this years hatch then you will see eggs next year as both of yours are seasonal type layers.

the mallards are about 4.5-5 months and the muscovy are about 2.5-3 months so i'm not really expecting eggs this year but would like to get an idea of when to look for eggs
