Goose egg Eggnog????

[m1chelle1]

Ok y’all let’s call this the most randomest question of the night!
Has anyone ever made or had eggnog that was made out of goose eggs??? I am going to have quite the excess this year, and I also LOVE eggnog. Not sure, just thinking it could be good?

Cheers

Great question. I don't know the answer but I wouldn't hesitate to try it.

I personally haven't had it, but I would definitely try it! I also love eggnog and if you have a surplus of eggs, why not?!

I have difficulty contemplating eating any of my gaggle's eggs because I enjoy hatching them so much; that said, I bet eggnog made with goose eggs would be delightfully rich. Some good rum would probably help balance the richness.

i have difficulty too, but im gonna have too many eggs to hatch all of them, so im trying to come up with "options" for my excess eggs. Any ideas? I want to sell some as hatching eggs locally, but just not sure there is much of a demand for them here, and they are def more difficult to hatch than chicken eggs, esp for the novice

Have any of you used goose eggs for deviled eggs?

I hear you - I'm going to have a lot more eggs this year than last, too.

Have you considered selling blown goose eggs for crafts like Pysanky? You might also consider selling some as eating eggs, depending on the regulations in your area...they have that novelty factor.

You might be surprised at the demand for hatching eggs, too. I do agree that at least some of the people who want to try to hatch them don't understand how to optimize their hatch rates - they're definitely more labor-intensive to incubate than chicken eggs.

I haven't, but imagine that they would be pure bliss for a deviled egg fan!

Those are all good ideas. I have considered the blown egg thing. I’ll have to look more in to that. So much to do so little time LOL

I blew out any eggs that weren't fertile at first candling this season (not that many, thankfully) and just need to buy my decorating supplies. Pysanky looks like a fun project...would make for gorgeous ornaments, too.
