It is easy to put the egg on the attached light. You still have to hold it and not drop it! Big duck eggs are easy to hold. I would rather hatch a large egg, to grow up into a hen that will lay large eggs!

We have a few of our ducks that lay a very nice large egg compared to our chickens. I hope to try baby ducklings next spring, to late in the year for me to be starting that project. LOL

I have a neighbor down the road who has an awesome pond and he will gladly take all our extra drakes. :)

I am not saying that there is anything wrong with a good chicken egg, but I do love those larger duck eggs. :yesss:

I am a fan of the big duck eggs. They eat like there is not tomorrow, though! I have a couple of egg customers who only want the duck eggs because they have allergies to chicken eggs. They are happy to give me $8.00/Doz, since at the Farmer's Market here they charge $9.00. I needed more girl ducks, so I hatched these backyard mixes. I will have 4 new layers this fall, duck eggs will be coming out my ears!

I should be sending you our duck eggs. We only ask $2.00 a Doz. for chicken and $3.00 for duck eggs. The money goes back into the girls anyway to help keep them all Healthy and Happy. :)
