Runner duck not laying yet

[Tgalloway]

My chocolate runner duck has not yet laid a single egg. The rest of her egg mates started laying back in mid august we have 2 pekins that she is bonded with that are laying and lay whereever they want so we have a daily egg hunt for those eggs but only find the pekins eggs she is just not laying and we have no idea why

It’s a beginning !!! And a blue one!

It is indeed and now we have been told by previous owner she is part Rouen!

The drakes does get up there but he chases rarely and mates only once a day he often stands watch as she lays there or sits next to her. And we have put in a golf ball to their normal house.

I have heard although he does wonna kill our little bantam rooster. We have separated the ducks into a smaller house and roaming space from the chickens. Are your ducks laying? (If you have any)

She is about 8 months old we got 5 egg mates and the other 4 are laying and have been since august

 

[Miss Lydia]

Well I can def. vouch for when she starts you’ll forget having to wait for her to start. She’ll probably lay straight for 18 months my 2016 yr Runners did. You have 5 ducks 2 are Pekin? What the other 2?besides the Runner.

 

[Miss Lydia]

She maybe getting close to laying. What are you feeding your Runners does she get oyster shell? Did you get them as ducklings? They are beautiful Runners
