Hi,
I purchased 4 ducks in July. 2 welsh harlequins (approx 12 weeks old) and 2 Aylesburys which the farmer told us were currently laying. 12 weeks on and we have not seen 1 egg! We also keep chickens and they are in an enclosed area (electric fence) so there is no where for them to 'hide' the eggs and I have checked!!
I have read so many contrasting articles of when ducks should start laying. Any advice or experience out there to help us?
Thanks in advance
