SilkieSensation, this may be a foreign idea but you could EAT them you know? I have it on good authority that eggs are totally edible. Just sayin'...You still have time. My eggs are running a few days behind & I'm buried in duckie eggs if you need any!!! If no one wants them I will have to go buy yet another bator to stuff them into.
You know I can't let good eggs go to waste!!!

We already use 12-18 eggs per day in cooking & still have a TON of duck eggs sitting here that are less than a week old. I haven't counted but know I have a flat of 30 pekins plus 2 more cartons over there, 3 cartons of runners, 1 of scovies & 3 of calls. Not all are completely full yet, but not far from it. Plus there are over 30 chicken eggs in the fridge we haven't managed to eat yet from this week. I haven't added quail, turkeys or geese in that count because I have orders for those. I just need to get rid of some duck eggs.

We eat, hatch, sell, trade, give away eggs..............................and I still cook about 10-15 dozen per week to feed back to the girls. And that does NOT count quail. I'm getting around 20-25 eggs per day from them, I never stay caught up with them.

I'll swap ya duckies for quail.My free-loader quail haven't gotten back to full force yet after adding 14 new birds a couple weeks ago. The are still adjusting from the move & I want to hatch some out. As fast as I get quail eggs I get orders for them that need filled.
I am starting to cook them and feed them to the girls too.
