All my girls started laying about 6 months of age. None of our drakes are mean, at least not to us. They are a bit hormonal right now and do go after each other from time to time.

What breed of duck will give me more than one egg a day on a regular basis... I sell my eggs to neighbors and could use the extra few dollars a week..???

Uhhhh..... none. It takes a considerable period of time to BUILD an egg properly.

...wait, I guess I'm wrong.... Never mind. I don't know the answer to that question. But the mere idea of fast-tracking egg production in a single body just makes me cringe.

I don't know of any myself 1 egg a day per bird as far as I know.

1 a day is the best you'll get out of any bird duck or otherwise, most are 1 every 2 days.
Now is laying season, and yes certain breed can get nasty toward people at times, muscovies come to mind to me, been chased tons of times by them, but most are sweet hearts
