will they lay this year?

Yes, they probably will if they haven't started already. Have you given them a layer ration or otherwise encouraged them to lay? I know my ducks have always started laying at around 20-24 weeks, but I know from reading other posts here that some ducks will start several weeks earlier.
 
My call girls were born march 15 and last thurs one of them laid her first egg... and one a day since. The othe one hasn't yet tho..
I have a bowl of oyster shells (free Choice) and she chows them down... her eggs are perfect..
 
Don't give up, I am still waiting on my Muscovy Girls hatched in March. My Drake from that hatch is active and fertile so the girls will be a few weeks later. (2 hens sat 2 different nests at the same time, hatching days apart).

Last year their parents didn't start laying until September and they had a clutch of eggs the end of the year to hatch.
