Our Very First Goose Egg


We have had some trouble with ducks eating their eggs. Yes unfortunately they will do this. Not on purpose to start with but if one happens to get broken and they then get a taste for them they will continue. Ha Doesn't make me a happy camper I am not raising and feeding the buggers so they can eat the eggs. We have a few tricks up our sleeve to try and hopefully these will stop them. Meanwhile I sent Tayler up to see if we had any eggs(trying to get to them before they eat them). She came back with a our first goose egg! As you can tell she was so proud she was the first to find it!

Modeling the egg.

For comparison left to right chicken, duck, and goose.

I waited on Josh to get home and cook it for us. The yolk is HUGE! I can't say why other than it is a mental thing was hard for me to try it. I mean chicken egg normal, duck eggs a little stretch but goose just bothered me a bit. After Josh scrambled it we all had a taste and Tayler finished it. These are even thicker and richer than the duck eggs, with the same buttery flavor and texture. I want to blow the next few we get for the kids and I to paint.egg
