Hi! On the floor of our chicken coop this morning (where we also house 2 Pekins) I found what would be a large cream-colored egg with some mottled brown spots on one end, almost 3 inches in length. I'm thinking it's one of the ducks that laid it. We don't know what gender our ducks are, but I've been guessing one boy and one girl. How can we tell if this egg is 1) a duck egg 2) fertilized and 3) if we can eat it? I've heard if it's fertilized then we can't eat it... although it is safe to eat fertilized chicken eggs. I'm also assuming the "float test" also works for duck eggs to make sure it's still good? When I found the egg, it was cool to the touch so it was laid during the night.
Thanks!
Thanks!
