I just brought these ducks home yesterday...and I do believe they were well cared for. The smell i speak of was not an opened egg but the outside. It was weird. I guess I will ask the previous owner about fish, but I might go out and smell my mud first. lol. ewwwww.
Ok, silly statement/question coming up...
I just got 3 ducks yesterday, a rouen, peking and peking cayuga cross and today I have my first duck egg. In the mud. I washed it off and had to sniff it. It had the oddest fishy earthy smelly smell to it. Wondering if it was from the mud under my deck...
