My wife finally met up with the duck herder who keeps her ducks in a small hut at nightfall and leads them out during the day. We get some 4 trays of fresh raw duck eggs from her every month for our household consumption (we have a large household: family, maids, drivers). Her other customers buy her duck eggs to make salted eggs.
This duck herd is in a remote town in the island province of Palawan, the last of the few remaining primitive lands. Primitive means nutritious, the ducks forage around for their food, they get no feeds, the females are inseminated by real sperm to make real eggs. Yes, these are real eggs, eggs that can form into chicks if you put them in an incubator.
We are into duck eggs because they just taste a whole lot better, they are more filling… theoretically more nutritious than organic and fertilized chicken eggs. Plus our 6 year old boy is allergic to any form of chicken. So we have 2 duck egg suppliers. These Palawan duck eggs are our primary source because they taste so much better than the Manila source.
See the eggs. Then see the ducks. My wife greeted them and said “Thank you for the eggs!”
