Muscovy egg laying

[Jake v8]

I have 4 Muscovy hens that are going on 8 months and have yet to start laying. With it being almost November and me living in Canada the days are getting quite short. Im assuming that has something to do with it? Does anyone have a rough estimate as to when they could start, February or march maybe?

Probably somewhere between March and May next year. Most of mine start up in April here.

I never expect eggs until the next year with mine. They are also slightly more seasonal than Quackers.

What part of Canada are you in?

I’m in southern BC. So the days aren’t crazy short but definitely enough for my chickens to slow
Egg production.

Yeah, they'll probably start earlier than mine do!

Want some cold and snow?
