went from no eggs to can't keep up

Holy moly, some of you might remember a bit ago I asked about my ducks not laying yet.. then I said they have.
I can't keep up .. I only have 2 females I get like 8 eggs a week and my NH red hen is just giving me eggs almost every day. There is only 3 of us in the house we can't eat so many eggs lol

I am tempted to incubate some, but I have enough work cleaning up after 4 ducks lol

I did make some lemon bundt cake with a duck eggs yesterday. was delish

Start selling. I sell mine and it pays for feed and water.

It is nice if you have a food pantry to donate to. I have to do that when my ducks are laying like gang busters.

That's great! If you've got a little local (not chain) farmer's market they just may buy your eggs!

If you go farmers market route make sure to check with your state egg board. There is usually a license you have to buy.

I don't here but like you said every state may have different rules

Thanks all those are great ideas I will look into. I was even thinking of giving anyone eggs if they wanted to try and hatch them for free.
If I did that I wouldn't be able to part with them lol

I tried this, they wouldn't take them, FDA regs....which I kind of understand.
