Caroline Posted January 21, 2007 Share Posted January 21, 2007 I just wanted to say...... what a clever ducky!! We've been getting an egg a day from our lovely duck since the week before Christmas. Lovely blue eggs! she's doing better than both chickens put together at the moment! that said, something that is quite sweet..... I open the duck house (holding my breath obviously... pooooooooo!) door and there they are...a duck egg and a chicken egg lying sideby side like a little nest... awwww amazng howmany people tell me they won't eat duck eggs too! Weirdos. Well good I say cuz there's more for me!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Snowy Posted January 21, 2007 Share Posted January 21, 2007 Definitely a clever ducky! How sweet for them to lay side by side! I didn't think ducks laid as frequently as chickens - but yours is obviously trying to change that idea! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bronze Posted January 21, 2007 Share Posted January 21, 2007 Mmmm duck eggs Love the fact they lay them next to each other Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Caroline Posted January 21, 2007 Author Share Posted January 21, 2007 depends on the breed I think- bit like chooks. Runners should lay about 300 a year. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
