This may sound stupid, bit would it be dumb to feed it to them raw? Would it be ok?

Duck Girl- Feed it to them. They will have no problem whatsoever. In fact, i'd leave in the shells. (I feel my dogs a natural dogfood diet, and eggs and shells are part of it) but I'd do it soon, since the eggs have warmed, becasue the warmth has been a catalist for changes withen, and they will go bad faster if they've been over 85 degrees.

Sorry your customer backed out.

What a bummer for you. I'd definately get them to make a down payment on their custom hatch next time.

Just as I suspected... It has nothing to do with what we eat

Glad you asked DG. I was wondering the same thing. It is only a matter of time before my fridge is overflowing with eggs.

Do you wash the eggs before using for food? and if so with what?

It was never a problem with my chicken eggs, but somehow the ducks manage to soil their eggs really well.

Sorry for the delayed info, DG! I've had to catch up like 3 times today. (Its a lot of reading!)

Thaks for your kind thoughts on my poor Lady.

To cheer myself up, I finally used my new candler (No comment there, Jazz! Resit, resist

)

My e-bay turkey eggs (ordered 6, got 7) 4 are coming on nicely, but one of them is in the wrong end (sigh) It sometimes works out, and hopefull it will for this one too. I've never candled so soon before. Its just in time, since I've got 12 Giant Pekings eggs coming (hope they fit) and another batch of white quial. I need room in my incubator. maybe I can figure out how to make the candler do quial eggs, they are just a bit too small for it. (always something, isn't it?)

Jazz- I have only Jumbo corturnix, but the new layers seem to lay smaller eggs, like pullets do. They usually hatch ok, but it makes for variety when breeding groups are always in transition somewhat. If I don't hatch and add newbies, they all get about the same size, more or less.

Hello to everyone, Hi Mama Stillmecle. Its good to have you chatting again. We missed you when you only made short visits.
