When can I see duck eggs?

[DucksOhio]

my 8 girls were born mid April. 3 khakis and 5 welshies.

I should be expecting some eggs soon, or does it take longer for them?

Thanks!

Should be soon. My first Runners hatched end of April and we’re laying in Sept.

I have been leaving mine in till around 7:15 am now but egg laying has dropped off anyway with everyone in molt. My 4.5 month old Runners haven’t started laying yet.

You’re right...I’ve been seeing a lot of small feathers in the house. Molt season it is.
