Duck eggs (Longview)

One dozen for $10
They are great for baking fluffy cakes and cookies! And they are great for eating! They are a large egg packed with protein and omegas. They are great for breakfast sandwiches because when you crack them and plop them on the frying pan they tend to not break the yoke as easy as chicken eggs, and they stay in a nice compact circular form. They taste similar to chicken eggs, but to me they have a slightly more 'eggy' taste.
If you have an incubator these eggs can also be hatched. Most of these will be a crossbreed duck with a Cayuga male. Most of the eggs were laid from a breed called Golden 300. They were bred to be high egg producers, up to 300 eggs per year. Which is right on par with a good chicken egg laying breed. We do have a few Duclair females that are also laying, but do not lay as many as the Goldens. Then our Cayuga females haven't started laying yet for the season, but they will be purebred Cayuga ducklings.
The ducks are not for sale, but I included pictures of the breeds. Brown = Golden 300. White = Duclair. Black = Cayuga (all black are males, black/white are females)
These are not cleaned as they stay fresher for longer if you do not clean them. Ducks are messier than chickens by nature.
