5 REASONS YOU SHOULD START EATING MORE DUCK EGGS 🥚🦆
1. You get MORE egg.
Duck eggs are about 50% larger than large chicken eggs, so you are getting a bigger egg with a larger, creamier yolk.
2. They pack more nutrients.
Duck eggs contain more protein, fat, and several nutrients than chicken eggs, including notably more vitamin B12, iron, and vitamin D
3. Their yolks contain choline
Choline is an essential nutrient that supports your brain, nervous system, neurotransmitters, and healthy cell membranes.
4. Those beautiful orange yolks aren't just pretty.
Duck egg yolks contain carotenoids (such as lutein and zeaxanthin), which are associated with eye health and protection from oxidative damage.
5. They can make your baking BETTER.
Duck eggs contain more fat than chicken eggs, which can add richness to baked goods. Your scrambled eggs will get eggstra creamy!
BONUS: Our eggs come from free-range ducks!!!
Our ducks get to roam outside, forage, eat bugs and plants, and basically live their best duck lives!
If you are ready to start your duck adventure, we got ours from Shirlock Acres Hatchery.
