Let me know if you find a feed. I was recently told to feed ducks pig feed instead of chicken layer pellets, but have not looked into that and would think that pig feed also had soy in it. \

A while back I received some great advice on this site when I needed to improve my ducks health. It was recommend`ed to give my ducks a good quality Cat kibbles or Dog Kibbles, grain free, but good protein as a treat. So I did get a bag of Kitten Kibbles at Costco.
Comparing the price and comparing the ingredient`s, especially niacin . And they love it. It is not cheap either.
I ordered a big bag of Organic feed on Amazon, but was disappointed, seeing it falling apart with moisture in the air. Ducks eat any thing and every thing but I do not want fish products because the eggs will taste fishy.
 
I have my own chickens and I eat chicken eggs on a daily basis with no problem. A friend of mine gave a dozen eggs couple days ago and I was so excited to try them out for the first time in my life. I boiled 2 and at lunch I put them in my salad. I haven't tried any other new food that day and a few hours later or so I was bloated with stomach cramps and going to the bathroom. Today, I feel even worse it seems! Im about to schedule an appointment with my gastroenterologist because is that bad. My advise to people that have never tried a duck egg in their life: boil it and only try one the first day .....
 
As an update to my original post on being sensitive/allergic to the duck eggs. I did have to stop eating them completely. Change of feed or how I cooked them made no difference. I did notice that if I froze the baked good, example banana bread I could tolerate it. I believe the proteins break down during the freezing process. My husband continues to eat them and the rest get tossed.

I've planned a year for my ducks, We've worked so hard to make it a perfect place for our flock. We are finally getting 4 eggs a day. Enough for our family and some to give away. Now all of a sudden, I get terrible stomach pain after eating duck eggs. :(My son also complains of stomach pain.) What gives?

Could we have developed an allergy? Are they just to rich for our systems to handle? If I change the feed, will it change the eggs?

Has anyone else had this happen?

I’m fine with chicken eggs. I’ve only tried the duck eggs twice and the first time I thought it was the carnitas I put with the scrambled eggs, threw up all night. Then I ate a hard boiled egg today and now I have a bad tummy ache again, gurgling and all. Ugh.. my husband is fine with them.
 
I’m sorry to hear that. It’s usually the other way around people who can’t eat chicken eggs can eat duck eggs. Guess it’s time for some chickens if you don’t have them already.
