Our First Egg...But No More

[stuka123]

Hello,
I have three female Pekin ducks and three male Pekin ducks. They are about 4 1/2onths old. The other day we had our first egg and I was super excited. But we haven't had any more eggs in the last 4 days.
Is this normal or do we have a problem here ?

Congrats -- this is completely normal. When they first start laying there can be a series of fits and starts. It takes weeks for them to find a solid production pattern

Ok thanks. It's so exciting. Is 4 1/2 months too young to start laying? I keep reading so many different ages.
