I actually used some of the turkey eggs for the deviled eggs, as well. My husband devoured them. I only got four before he demolished the rest. The nice thing about the turkey eggs is that they were larger and a bit more firm. However, removing the shell was more difficult on the turkey eggs vs the chicken eggs. But - the flavour was the same as the chicken eggs. You do seem to see more yolk to white ratio on the turkey eggs...but, that could have been an illusion due to the size difference between the eggs.

love those c-duck eggs, Yinepu!! (I'd spell it out, but I'd get it wrong
)
cayuga?... I love the first year layers.. the eggs start off black.. then lighten as they lay more.. problem is the coating on them is VERY easy to scratch off... but some of the grey eggs have rather unique patterns on the shells

My mother did try tanning my hide (on several occasions
) ... problem was she used to call me "brainless".. so I am assuming that's why the tanning never "stuck"..

love that quote!
edited to add:
Add emu and ostrich to the list of "not enough brains to tan their hides".. since they have "leather" you would tan them like a fur bearer.. but with such tiny heads there is no way you'll get enough brains to cover all that hide!
i only avoid brain tanning because I like to save the skulls.. I don't like to make any large holes in there to remove the brains
