Eggs A La Duck

I'm proud to say that Suzie, the lone surviving Runner duck from that fated day in early June, has begun to lay.  She's given us 3 eggs in as many days, putting our slacker hens to shame.  Unfortunately, she's chosen to lay them in the duck house, so they get messy, but I can't ask for everything, can I?  She's been consistent in at least laying them early in the morning, so I can fetch them with some consistency. 

Just goes to show that you don't need two eyes to function (though it helps you not to walk into things as much), and you can survive a vicious attack and go on to lead a normal life.  Go Suzie!!!

The newest egg is in the front.  See how much bigger they're getting?  All from a 4 1/2 pound duck!
