I might have fat ducks? I have 6 Pekins and they're fed maybe a cup each of layer feed. They have a decent space to forage along a dry creek bed. How do I limit feed without hindering their egg production, or is that when I know I've cut back too much?

They are all very cute like fluffy white pillows in the yard! But one especially looks like it has a full diaper...!
(It's dark now but I can add pictures in the morning)
 
Are they about this big? If so you are fine, Pekins are pretty big ducks.:)

YES!! Haha ok, I was seriously thinking when are they going to stop growing!! Now I do have one who lags behind the flock and is a tad bigger than the rest, but she acts fine too, just a loly-gagger! I guess I won't bring out the duck treadmill just yet ;)

I'll still post a picture tomorrow in case someone else comes along needing info!

Thanks!
