There was no mother, just the eggs. Today we went to check on the nest but still no mother. My friend took one of the eggs, he says his parents and him are taking care of it. It is really hot so the eggs are still warm should I take the other and attempt to care for it?

It's raining and the eggs are not covered. Will she come back?

The mallard will leave sometimes to go get food or be with her mate and that is when you can do a quick mow or weed eat the grass around the nest. However you are going to have to keep your eyes open for when she leaves. She would probably prefer tall grass so she is hidden and it blocks the wind. Best of luck with the ducks!

We have provided water and bread, and seldoms leaves. What should we do? We live in a residential neighborhood, and have no idea where the duck came from. Any help would be appreciated. Thanks Posted on 03/30/2008 | Report Spam or Abuse RE: Mallard Duck Layed Eggs By Leslie (Guest Post) Hi, I discovered today that a mallard laid 6 eggs yesterday and we are planning to put a fence in tomorrow or the next day. Even if we were not putting in the fence my son, as he did today, scared her away. She has not returned today to sit on the nest or lay any more eggs but has fed on some bird seed at a feeder in our yard. I was wondering if I should move the nest or I am not sure what else. Any recommendations?

I candeled them and they are all alive, what should I do? Posted on 07/30/2007 | Report Spam or Abuse RE: Mallard Duck Layed Eggs By kathie (Guest Post) We have a duck nest by our front door also. She had laid 5 eggs and now there is only one in the nest. She has been scared away several times by the family using the front entrance. So I was wondering if ducks will move the eggs to another location? What do I do with the one remaining duck egg ? I have not seen the mother duck in a day nor have I seen a male duck nearby.

Later, after they had flown away, we noticed an egg on the stone just inches from the edge of the pool. It sat there all day and we didn't see them return. Last night we gently moved it away from the edge of the pool and placed on the mulch around a bush (only about 18 inches from where it was originally). This morning the mallards were back but they haven't gone anywhere near the egg. What do you think?

She came and went everyday for about 2 weeks. Then, on Monday, she must have frightened a skunk near our trashcan. It must have sprayed very near to her because our house stunk and that area of the garage was potent. She stayed on the eggs 1 more day after that, and I haven't seen her since Tuesday a.m. I called the Audubon Society and they felt that 4-5 days away from the nest wasn't a good sign. I "candled" the eggs to see if the fetuses were moving, and they are! I warmed them up under a lamp for 2 hours and returned them to the nest. She still has not returned. What should I do?

She didn't appear to be sitting on the nest for the last 2 days, but suddenly this morning she is sitting on the nest. I thought she'd abandoned the nest, but now I realize she wants to all hatch at the same time. Glad I didn't touch any of the eggs!

They have been living on my deck and around my pool (currently there is a tarp and water in it, I have discovered two eggs about 5 feet from each other on the top of the edge of my tarp). The Ducks come and go and I have not seen the female sit on these two separate eggs. What should I do? Posted on 04/29/2007 | Report Spam or Abuse RE: Mallard Duck Layed Eggs By Jan (Guest Post) I have a Mallard nest in just in front of my house. I was in the yard and the male and female came up to the house. The male waited close by while the female made a nest under a small Gardenial bush in some fresh pine straw. There is a lake a couple of blocks away so I was surprised they came all the way to my house. She has left one egg per day and there are now 6. Is there anything I should do to help protect it from predators? So far all eggs look ok. The nest is near the edge of a grass area that is usually cut weekly; should I let the grass grow tall?

Posted on 04/19/2007 | Report Spam or Abuse RE: Mallard Duck Layed Eggs By GirlNumber5 (51) Profile Blog! Contact Hi, Chris. I believe that the ducks will lay thier eggs one at a time & then when there is about a dozen they will set on them to begin the incubation process, this way they will all hatch at the same time. I have hand raised mallard chicks a few time, the kids incubated them in school, and then they came to my house. They are great fun, as they will imprint on you, follow you all over the yard, like you are the mama. They would even come down the street with me when I brought the kids to the bus stop in the fall...lol Then in the fall they fly away with the rest of the ducks. I have a female who has been coming back for years to my yard to lay her eggs each spring. Trish in CT Posted on 03/21/2007 | Report Spam or Abuse
