"These eggs have not been graded as to quality and weight." Duck eggs are larger than chicken eggs, they also have more egg yolk and less white than chicken eggs. The ducks eat a combined diet, consisting of proper balanced feed as their daily intake, along with cooked rice, pastas, fruits, fresh vegetables, beans, organic microgreens, and some leftovers. Free backyard ranging ducks will eat what they find on our farm naturally as well.
ALLERGY: Some people can be allergic to duck eggs, always medically check with your doctor or under medical supervison when trying a new food source.
TO HARD BOIL FRESH DUCK EGGS - Place eggs in a proper size pot, add water that covers eggs well.
