When will ducks lay again??

[scooterward]

My 2 Cayuga ducks stopped laying this winter and haven't started back up yet. I keep thinking it's going to be any day now but it's not.

So my question is when will they start laying again? They will be a year old next month.

Probably mid April. The daylight hours is what prompts them to begin laying.

ETA: Make sure they are getting sufficient nutrition as well. No calcium=no shells=no eggs. Might want to reevaluate their nutrition and make sure they have ample ammounts of the necessary things to produce the eggs.

Thanks for your response.

They are on organic layer pellets and I have a small bowl of grit. I'll add a small bowl of oyster shells today. They get good treats too.
