School is Out and Our Daily Duck Egg

Do you see me doing my happy dance? School is OUT! Hooooo-Raye!!! I'm celebrating the freedom, the days where the kids can sleep in, the boys playing and engaging with Stella, the suppers I can make without having to think if they will be good for lunch leftovers at school, the added help we'll have around the yard (hello ulu'he you will be pulled up and put to good use as a mulch), and the adventures we will take!

 We have been gathering one duck egg a day fairly consistently now for the past couple of weeks. In the morning there is usually one egg right at the edge of "duck lake" on our driveway. One egg. That's it. We have three laying hens, and I am wondering where the other two eggs are hidden?!? Or, could it be that they are taking turns and rotating who will be laying the egg each day?
 It is a mystery!
 The eggs are large with large yolks.
Just two pics that Tom took while he was in Honolulu this week. I'll post more later, but they haven't all uploaded. Our connection speed is very, very, very slow. These were both taken from his street-view hotel room. He said the lines at the restaurants were so long!
