I bought 5 Pekin Ducks last June, (4 female, one male) & was told they were 3 months old. They looked full grown.
Never had Pekin Ducks, figured like Chickens, by 5 months they would start laying. One did in August, but has tapered off during the winter. However, the other hens never produced.
I had them on chicken feed, then switched to all flock feed. They don't seem to like scratch grains or corn.
Is it possible their older than I was led to believe? They eat a lot to not be getting eggs.
