Chicken vs Duck Eggs

Some egg-cellent information on the egg debate. Not recommending Duck or Chicken, WE SELL BOTH!

Duck Eggs Vs Chicken Eggs 

Duck eggs are larger in size than chicken eggs. The whites in chicken eggs have a higher water content (more runny) than the whites in duck eggs. Duck eggs have larger yolks and a higher yolk-to-white-ratio than chicken eggs.

We have both. Yes, they are different from each other so I am going to break it down quick:

Duck eggs are GREAT for baking

Chicken eggs have thinner shells

Duck eggs are larger and richer than eggs

Chickens are prolific layers year around if taken care of correctly but ducks are as well with much less light necessity

Duck eggs stay fresh longer because of their insanely thick shell

Duck eggs contain 30% more protein, and a different type of protein that chicken eggs so if allergic to chicken eggs, most can eat duck and visa versa.

Ounce for ounce, duck eggs contain more Omega-3, Vitamins A and D, fatty acids, choline, folate, and iron than chicken eggs.

Chickens lay well for about 1-2 years then dramatically start slowing down production while ducks lay a solid 4-5 years before they slow down

Chicken eggs come in a lot more colors
