How many duck eggs did you get today?

Eighteen (18!) eggs today and something that looks and feels like a potato, i have no clue what that is.

Did you cut it open?

Did you cut it open?

No, i already have a stomach bug…
From the outside it looks like a hard boiled yolk.

I wasn't suggesting you eat it.
I was wondering if maybe a lash egg?

I never wanted to take a bite out of it, i just meant to say yesterday that i was already not feeling well and further examining that "potato" could have caused my stomach to return everything i had eaten during the last 24 hours…

But you asked for it @Miss Lydia, so here are two disgusting pictures:

Spoiler: Do not open if you have a stomach bug...

Looks to me like a dried out yolk. I hope that is just a mishap from one of last year's ducks and not a sign that one of them has a serious problem.

Nine eggs today, harvested under loud protest from Violeta and Buffzilla Duck.
Had to buy back my freedom with meal-worms and tomato-slices…

That could very well be a lash egg.
