When Do Ducks Lay Eggs?
Ducks, like most birds, are seasonal breeders, meaning their reproductive cycle is influenced by environmental factors such as day length and temperature. In general, ducks begin laying eggs in the spring, when daylight hours are increasing and food resources are abundant. The timing of egg-laying can vary depending on the species of duck, but most species lay their eggs between March and July. Ducks typically lay one egg per day, and their clutch size can range from 5 to 12 eggs.
