Welsh harlequin duck info needed

[DaphneTheDuck]

They are sounding like my ultimate breed lol. Do you know what age they stop laying?

Sorry I know the answer to the age they stop and are all strains of harlequin good layers or just select strains?

Well, the are almost identical to khakis, and my 4 year old khaki has started to slow a bit. I’m not sure what age they actually stop laying. But in my mind I compare duck years to human menopause.

Do you think any Welsh harlequin will lay well or just certain strains? And only just slowing at 4 your Campbell is a good layer

Apparently the breed started when someone hatched out a pair of odd light ducklings from pure Khaki Campbell eggs. Almost definitely crossed with some other breeds after that, but that would be why they're so similar.
