They lay at 20-24 weeks
Yes they lay all year round about 200 eggs per year is average. If it get really cold they may not lay like chooks

Don't be sorry we love question [smilie=a_cookiemonster.gif]

Is it correct the only way to tell the sex difference is the curl on the tail of the drake?

I wish someone would tell my family of Pekin & other Duck breed's - no eggs since November !!!!
Last year yes they slowed down - but this year they have stopped.
I have even hung the axe on the fence to no avail....

They are eating like there is no tomorrow and feathers everywhere

I just wish they would get on with it.
Regards
disadisfied Duck Breeder.

Our pekin ducks won't stop laying. They are putting the chooks to shame right now.
