C'mon seriously?

It's been in the 20's at night here and in the 30's during the day. My girls have not slowed down at all in the laying department.
 
I found a duck egg frozen to the ice covering the stock tank (the waterfowl swimming hole). What WAS she thinking?!?!?
I guess sometimes they just fall out when least expected.

she probably thought Oops !
 
Well no eggs today, which i am pleased.. we have plenty coming from the chickens, now the girls can rest. Besides, the cold and snow is set to return.. we're only getting to -10C tomorrow... brrrrr... (14F, i converted this time lol)
 
Well, my girls have been laying. It may be all 3 since I saw the black/white hen looking in at the nest. This evening when I went to put them up, I couldn't find one of my chocolate barred girls. I was worried since we have had rain for 5 days and the creek on the property (they haven't found it yet) is high and flowing VERY fast.
I looked around then peeked in the nest and there she was, setting.

We are expecting snow tomorrow. At least the current ducklings (6 weeks old) will not be using a heat lamp after these hatch if she goes broody completely.

My muscovy are crazy. I need to remove more eggs tomorrow.
