cordelia Posted February 15, 2011 Share Posted February 15, 2011 sorry for the daft question, I have chickens, but my brother now has ducks. he has two ducks remaining, two others flew off, and he had one egg yesterday, and three this morning. is this possible? he has one male and one female, who was given as a runner duck, but looks nothing like a runner, but is the image of a buff Orpington. Can anyone advise, please whether this is possible, he is sure one of the ducks is male Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

cordelia Posted February 20, 2011 Author Share Posted February 20, 2011 Thanks.... I thought it was the same for ducks as my chickens....can only assume he missed them when collecting, or his other girl duck came back ! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
miller30 Posted February 21, 2011 Share Posted February 21, 2011 They are very good at hiding their eggs i sometimes miss a couple and then find them a couple of days later leanne. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
