I'm getting anywhere from 10-12 eggs per day which you would think is plenty!! Well, it's not and between my grandmother, her 2 friends and my mother, I can't (actually the chickens can't) keep up!!! They all bake for Christmas and after dropping off 4 dz eggs yesterday by my grandmother she just called to ask if I had another 4-5 dz!! I know she's 85 yrs old, but how do I get that many eggs in one day!! I also have to give my best friends mother some eggs as she gave me a kitchen garbage bag full of cartons and hasn't received any eggs yet! Boy, will I be glad when the holidays are over!!! Oh yeah, then I was cleaning out the coop today and had 7 eggs in the bucket outside the coop, while inside cleaning and putting fresh straw in, my new little Brittany pup, decided to help herself!! I caught her stealing on the 3rd egg and she dropped it but we have about 8 inches of snow here....not a chance in heck of finding it/them! The little thief!!

Just tell them how high in cholesterol eggs are and you should be off the hook until they think to do some research!!!

I am getting 2 eggs a day still from my hens, buit my ducks are laying to beat the band. I raised the price from $3 to $4, thinking we would have some for us, but today alone, I took one dozen to work to sell and I came home from work and found $16 in the outside fridge and 4 dozen missing!

I love duck eggs, too!
 
Sound like you need to get some geese or turkeys for next holiday season. the eggs are almost twice the size so you would only need half as many!
