The process of mating, when the male and the female duck are the water the male duck jumps on he female and...... well, I guess you can imagine what happens next. But it important to have deep enough water so the ducks can mate naturally.

You have to look at the behavior of the duck

  • always with a mate
  • looking for a nesting spot in yards/bushes
  • eating more than usual
  • heavier/bigger

(mating season late february late march) ect. I have a full grown mallard duck at my pond who is pregnant she had her first brood late in July every time I guess she is pregnant I'm always right so it depends on the behavior of the duck and how well you know it if it really trusts you and it doesnt come near you that is also a symptom it just wants to be alone.

Ducks don't get pregnant. They lay eggs, then incubate them. Animals that give live birth incubate the egg inside their body.

Duckilings are "baby" ducks. Babies do not reproduce in any species.

Ducks do not get pregnant, they will lay clutches of eggs and begin to get "broody" and sit on them. Whether they will hatch depends whether she has mated with a male or not.

The male duck will mate with the female, and this fertilizes the eggs the hen-duck will lay.
