Duck Eggs,United States price supplier

If you have never tasted a duck egg, you are missing out.  Of course, some chefs buy duck eggs mainly to bake with as they can provide even more body than fresh chicken eggs.  However, eating them is a treat.  As some of you have probably heard, duck eggs have gotten a bad rap for having more fat and cholesterol than chicken eggs.  (This has something to do with why they are so yummy.)  But those of you who eat pasture-based meats and eggs for nutritional reasons, probably know that cholesterol monitoring is one of those nutritional government scams, seeing as our body doesnt accumulate cholesterol by eating it, but rather by making it.  And even more important, fat from pasture-raised animals should be a part of our diets as they contain the essential Omega-3 fatty acids and such.  Jo Robinson on her website has published studies done with pastured eggs that show that eating them does not increase LDL, or bad, cholesterol.

As this is our first year raising ducks, we will obviously be working out the kinks as we go, but as everything else on our farm, you can be sure they will be out on fresh pasture.  We will basically use the same model as our laying chickens and make any necessary changes.
