I got day old Runner ducks back in July and by January of this year, they had started laying about an egg a day. I have 10 ducks and generally get between 7-10 eggs per day, so sometimes some of them do not lay every day. Good luck!@
They eat the same things as other ducks. If ducklings, feed duck starter (local feed store). If not feed cracked corn (local feed store). They also eat tomatoes, corn, green beans, limabeans, various bugs, small feeder fish, turkey, cooked carrots, mashed hard boiled eggs, and milk.
the ducks hatch in the spring normaly in the 2nd week
Some species of ducks, like domestic ducks, can lay eggs without the presence of a male through a process called parthenogenesis. This occurs when the egg develops without fertilization. The eggs will not be viable for hatching into ducklings, though.
Wild ducks certainly do and many farms have ducks that set eggs each spring but there are hatcheries that incubate duck eggs just as most chickens are produced in a hatchery.
Ducks usually lay their eggs in a nest made from grass, leaves, and feathers. They will choose a secluded spot near water, such as by a pond or stream, to build their nest and lay their eggs.
if you mean setting then no, the don't sett(siting on there eggs to hatch them) on eggs very often, and if they do they might abandon the nest at anytime from a few days till days before hatching, apparently they are not good mothers, i have had them set but not raise them,( the eggs got eaten before hatch), if you want them for eggs then there good(200 eggs a year), just make sure you have a coop for them or keep them indoors till the lay there egg(usually in the morning), and they will lay eggs wherever they are when they have to, so if there free ranging you will have to go on an egg hunt, but if you have a pond then you might find alot of the eggs in the pond, at least that's what i fin with mine,

The ducks vary in weight between 1.4 and 2.3 kg (3-4 ½ lbs). Their height (from crown to tail tip) ranges from 50 cm (20 inches) in small females to about 66 cm (26 inches) in the taller males. The eggs are often greenish-white in color, but these too vary.

Ducks are oviparous as they lay eggs.
ducks are not mamals beacause they lay eggs
No Chickens do not ducks
In eggs
No. Any fish eggs that pass through the ducks will not be viable. It is possible for fish eggs to transfer to a new pond on the feet of ducks and other birds.
Ducks are hatched out of eggs and no, they do not bleed.
Like all birds, ducks are hatched from eggs.
