Jill - The Duck Lady



Jill

a friend of mine has just bought a plot of land and was thinking of
having some chickens and ducks for egg purposes only. I happened to
mention I had a duck many moons ago mainly a family pet, and we had
one egg a day for years. But they tasted so strong I could not eat
them as a "chucky egg" but only in cooking. I have watched the recent
TV and someone mentioned that different ducks deliver different
strength of taste in their eggs.

What good laying ducks would you recommend, that you could eat as the
egg as a fried or "chucky egg"

PS: Are chickens and ducks ok to keep on an allotment or is that not
a good idea?
