This egg is definitely heading for the frying pan tomorrow - a big fry up to celebrate seems appropriate!  ;D

Congratulations on getting some eggs from your ducks, Prink.   ;D ;D

Do you know which ones layed them as I know you have two different breeds?  Have you changed your mind about selling the three that chase the cats now?

Pauline - Think it was the Welsh Harlequins x Silver Appleyards, going by the size of the eggs, these are the three that I am trying to sell. They are still for sale, even though they are laying  ;D
ktlawson - unsure how old my three are, born about April/May time according to the seller
