We live on a farm. Have had ducks here for many years. Fresh duck eggs every day. Great boiled, scrambled and fried. They are also brilliant for baking. We love our duck eggs, very nutritious and we are all healthy!!!

The answer from Tesco, where I got my last (and the only ones)duck eggs, is that they are no longer stocking them because there is not the demand for them! I’m now on the hunt for producers/suppliers in West Norfolk! I’ve found someone at Spalding that I might have to try, if I can’t get someone near King’s Lynn. Anyone know a duck egg producer?

Duck eggs are really fantastic. I had never tried one until a Vet friend of mine offered me some from a grateful farmer he had helped. They are wonderfully nourishing and if I eat one for breakfast, I do not feel hungry for the rest of the day. The flavour is absolutely beautiful and I just cannot understand why the supermarkets do not sell them.

WE EAT THEM DAILY! I completely adore them and have to say I prefer them over chicken eggs every day…you always seem to get so much more yolk to white!

We buy them locally from a wholefood shop and they are the same price (6 for £1.60) as chicken eggs in the supermarket. they are fab with soldiers before work, yum!
