When will the ducks start laying?

[Mallards and Quail]

Swedish ducks are so cute and amazing I've never had one but always wanted one.

Soooo I'm a bit confused now... I only have 2 adult females (except for my mallard who's currently in duck jail lol) and already gathered their morning eggs.
Now i got home from work and find these two????
have any of you had females that can lay more than 2 eggs per day? Because mine never did, but the only other ducks who could have laid those would be my barely 2mo girls.

they're super soft too, so added extra calcium into their food bowl right away.

I sure do
Happens now and then where I get an extra but last week I was stumped
I went to collect eggs I had 12 but only 10 girls
Hmm 2 girls for a double in one day
Then an hour later I saw nugget go to the duck house so I went to check on her and she laid an egg
Then I take dasher to the school for s show and tell ( they are hatching my duck eggs ) and while there dasher lays an egg
So 4 extras one day and everyone laid for weeks not missing a day

Only once have I ever had one lay 2 eggs in one day. I think your young ones may be starting to lay. Congratulations!

I hope so! They all got extra treats this evening for the good work

First one I've gotten, I'm really considering borrowing a Swedish drake because this breed is lovely! And the speckled eggs my girl laid are so pretty!
