Do ducks( ive got 4 indian runners and 3kakhi campbells) lay at any time of day or is it just in the morning,
just got them on sat, i know it will take time for them to calm down and start laying again but ma belly getting hungry and i just cant wait ....LOL

Ducks usually lay in the morning which is why if you don't let them out too early, they should have laid in the house and you don't have to spend ages looking for them and then finding that they are covered in mud etc.

My Muscovys lay early morning, before my hens most days.
-
My KK and KK/Swedish Blue crosses lay before 10 am, so I keep them in till then. On the odd occasion one lays late and outside and the magpies get there fiirst! They don't go back into the shed to lay whereas the hens do.

mine lay late morning, sometimes into lunchtime in the garden. I do not let them get out of bed before 10, which helps. :&>
