O'k my male mallard (Wade) just started mating with my female (Waddle) does that mean she is close to laying her first egg??? there both almost 5 months !!!!!!!!!!! thank you for your help!
My mallards haven't layed yet and they're over 30 weeks. I have seen them mating since they were around 24-25 weeks. I've heard that mallards only lay in spring and early summer.
i just aquired a mallard hen from a friend that is moving and she is laying eggs still. i have had her 2 days adn have gotten 2 eggs. to bad the male had dissapeared a couple weeks ago or i would incubate.
