Who else is waiting the impossible wait?

Congrats on the duck egg! What kind of duck is it?

I have two pekin ducks that are about 18-20 week old and I've seen them being "sexualy active"

... but no egg yet. One of my chickens started laying and I think it's younger then the ducks.

My children are pekins as well. They started being sexually active on their fourth month (to the very day) and one of the girls laid her first egg at eighteen weeks exactly. She has a sister, I keep going out there every other hour looking for another egg. I'm such a dork! Maybe some cottage cheese will put her in the mood!
 
I received my first egg on Saturday from a BR, 18 months and 3 days old. This morning a BA laid her first egg (same age) and this afternoon another BR laid her first!!! They're tiny, but worth the wait.
Only 21 hens more to go...

I no longer am waiting the impossible wait. Don't worry, there is a light at the end of the tunnel and I found out it is NOT a train, but the shine of a perfect little egg!
