Sometimes ducks eat them on their way South. Depends on where you live, if you happen to be on the duck migration rout you are out of luck. BTW, peach fed ducks are delicious!

Same thing happened to me. I believe the reason my trees had hardly any peaches this year was the mild winter. Also a super wet spring kept the bees from pollinating the flowers. I would also consider the answer that the trees only produce every 2 year, but my trees are usually loaded every year.

some fruit trees only produce a lot of fruit everyother year. I have a small peach tree also and last year we had bushels. This year I think we had under 10. It is totally normal. Do not worry.

It could be many problems. We've had an unusually hot summer and peach trees can be impacted by many things such as brown rot and a bug called a peach tree borer. You might consider contacting an arborist.

Depends on your winter. If it was too mild, your tree didn't have a true dormant cycle. If it was long and cold, the buds were frozen. Since the leaves are fine, it shouldn't be a pest or disease. Also, if you pruned you could have over-pruned

I don't know. Don't know much about peach trees. It must make you sad though. Do you know what's making me sad? I think earlier a good friend of mine got mad at me when we were chatting. She left and I didn't get a chance to appologize to her. I called and left her a message because it's really going to bother me if she goes the rest of the weekend being mad at me. I hope she understands.

Could have overfertilized and gotten too much nitrogren which would mean more green leaves and less fruit. Did you spray good?

Perhaps you have neighbors with "peach-eating" kids. Bless their little theving hearts.

Would you have more kids if someone took them and gave them all away?
