My ducks laying eggs in winter, i dont know what to do!!!

[Tab_west]

I have 2 male and 1 female pekin ducks and daisy started laying her first 4 eggs yesterday and she laid one this morning in her coop nest. I dont know if im supposed to let her keep the eggs she lays in her coop or any of the eggs she lays right now because its winter?? If she's laying eggs now how long will she keep laying eggs? will she still lay eggs in the spring?

She'll be fine. Just harvest them like you would any eggs. Pekins rarely go broody more than passingly.

Bigger problem is the ratio. Come spring the two drakes will more than likely injure her trying to breed.

Duck eggs are great for baking with.

Just gather them before they freeze and enjoy the eggs.

I also agree that having 2 drakes and only one poor female will be very rough come mating season.
