      You’re not kidding. I lived on land with ducks and chickens. Not only are the yolks a deep and rich color, they’re thicker and more sticky. I miss having fresh duck eggs daily.

        Yes, but there’s no amount of cheap or low quality food pellets that would make them this dark. That’s the whole point.

          I’m a convert, personally. I used to buy cheap eggs in America and I’d always drown them in hot sauce and salt to give them a flavour. Now in England I don’t buy eggs unless I’m in the mood for eggs, and it’s always really good ones, sometimes duck. There’s just no comparison, and I feel a bit better about how the animals are treated of course.
