Ducks Nesting.

11 years ago

I have 11 Khaki Campbell Ducks, I am hoping they hatch out some babies before winter. They have made two nests, One has 15 eggs in it. The other has 3 eggs in it. Meanwhile I have been collecting the eggs that lay astray in the other parts of there coup. When do they start sitting and what should I expect?

You have a breed that is known to be prolific egg-layers and here's a quote from an article...... "most brooding behavior has been sacrificed in exchange for prolific egg laying ability in this breed".

I've linked a forum where others may be able to answer your question.
Out of curiosity, how many male ducks are in the group?
