Hi,
So I have been wondering why my pekin duck (a proven breeder and layer) isn't laying. I have been meaning to get another hen because the ratio is just one drake to one hen. I know that is not very good, however I can't find any pekins for sale where I am sooo yeah. Anyways I have seen the pair mate but my girl just isn't laying. I have an incubator and wish to hatch some ducklings I just need her to LAY SOME EGGS! I have learnt that when they are laying their beaks are bright orange however her's is dull. They are both extremely healthy and get fed fresh vegies and chook course laying mash with my chickens. Am I doing something wrong? Why won't she lay..ahhhh
Thankyou
