Overwhelmed



I think this duck has taken on more than she can handle. Reminds me of myself these days! Fortunately for her, a hen came along and is now sitting on all of these eggs with her. Wonder if I can get a hen to come and help with my laundry...

Much more ambitious than my hen. She started with 5, I accidentally took one the other day when I made her give up the other eggs. Then she somehow hid 2 more from me and is currently at 6. 2 of those are a week behind the other 4, but I'm considering them backup in case the first ones don't hatch.

Is there a pic of the duck and hen collaborating coming up?

If you find a way to have a chicken help with the laundry - let me know. The poor duck.

Laura - I haven't checked on them lately to see who's still setting on what. I'll be sure to snap a picture if they are!

Kris - I think I could make a fortune training laundry-doing chickens ;)

Patti - Ha! We've something like 14 ducklings running round the pasture this summer. Not sure how many are still out there.

hahaah! How nice to have such willing help come along and pitch in. What a lucky duck!

Are those duck eggs, chicken eggs or a blend of both?
