Is somebody not pulling their weight


Pixie finally ventured off her nest today and it looks like she has rejoined the other ducks.

We had five eggs this morning, somebody always lays late so I check when I let them out - so that made six.

Late in the afternoon there was, what looked like, an egg in the grass on the lawn. It was a bit strange as the grass had been cut at the weekend. I found that it was actually a very tiny egg that one of the girls had deposited late in the day.

I can't imaging there is room for a yolk in there and we certainly wouldn't meet any sort of standard egg size gauge. Katy called and took away a box of eggs so here it is shown with yesterday usual six.
