I love my ducks, we have a pretty eclectic group of animals and they are my favorites. They kind of putter around quacking and spashing about, and seem to ALWAYS be eating and rooting around for bugs, we see them out as early as 6am and as late as 2am. Normally they lay like machines, but either they are hiding their eggs, or they aren't laying right now. Once you get those two, I'll be you'll get more!
