After raising poultry are eggs ruined for you guys?( I raise ducks but this occurs to anybody)

I, myself, am looking forward to eggs. Number 2 reason for getting ducks! I’d have no problem eating their meat either - though I’m not going to slaughter them - so it would depend on how they will have died.

On a side note - I also made my kids clean the fish they caught before they ate it. Just a part of being at the top of the food chain - for now!

New to chicken keeping, they are almost 20 weeks old and haven't started laying yet. Raised specifically for providing eggs, but I have developed this horrible fear now that I'll crack open a half developed egg. Here's to hoping that passes really quickly.

Can only develop if you let one brood, take up eggs daily.

Ive never liked egg whites! Ill eat them if deviled or pickled, or scrambled, but I LOVE fried eggs and only eat the yolks. I scrape all the white away. It looks like disgusting gelatinous goo. I have no issue eating my girls eggs.

Quiche is a favorite in my household. A kale, bacon, mushroom, and onion quiche with Siracha is a wonderful thing. My mouth is watering just thinking about it.

X2 on the quiche!!!!! Next up would be anything baked with sugar and butter

I have 29 laying hens and one rooster. I LOVE eggs! I eat between 2 and 6 eggs a day myself. They are tasty and healthy and I have no problem with "where they came from". I make egg salad for sandwiches every other day. My husband gets fried eggs for breakfast and sometimes dinner too! I sell eggs as a business and extra unsold eggs are scrambled and given back to the chickens as well. Eggs are a fantastic food!

When my first chickens started laying I couldn't eat their eggs at all! It just seemed weird knowing their little butts laid them. I actually wondered "what if I did something wrong and they'll taste awful??" I didn't trust myself, or them, apparently But that phase soon passed... I can't wait for my new ladies to start laying!!

Funny!! That is kinda what I am like right now....I hope I will learn to eat them cuz my girls work so so hard for me.

I make an amazing cornbread with my eggs... didn't tell my family until after they tried it and my sister said - since speedy is your daughter, we are essentially eating your grandkids. I said essentially! Ugh - I just don't think about it now - though it is easier when they aren't speedys, lol.

That is seriously what my friend says..she is always...always saying " You are eating Jeffery's babies"... and I think ' they are really my girls not his, they lay them!'.
