What Color are Pekin duck eggs?

[Duckmom1980]

What color are Pekin duck eggs? I found 2 eggs in the duck house but the chickens go in there too sometimes. I have 13 week old chickens and a 25 week old Pekin pair. I assume the eggs are duck eggs but not 100%. Any pictures would be great too. Thanks.

I don't think chickens lay at 13 weeks. My guess is it's the ducks

Ducks! And Pekins lay white eggs. Congrats!

They are usually white to "off white" so you have duck eggs. Good for you!

These are some of Peanuts (Pekin) eggs

Sounds like duck eggs. My Pekins started at 25 weeks and they are bigger and more ovoid. They are off white almost a bit gray. Hope this helps. Tracy

The eggs are a beige tint, nearly white. Texture of duck egg shells and chicken egg shells is different.

I get white eggs from my Pekins. If you want to know for sure, use food coloring to tint.

I can tell my Pekin eggs from my other duck eggs- I have 2 Pekins and they give me the only truly white eggs compared to the rest that have either a cream tint or green hue.
