Pruning mint

I am also ashamed to say I must be a very bland person, as I find duck eggs too rich for my palette ! A lot of people say that, but I haven't noticed. We eat them soft boiled and haven't found them too rich. They have a lovely green-blue colour though, which could be a bit off-putting. First time I saw one I thought it was rotten and smashed it on the back fence. Even if they are richer, they should be fine for cakes, pancakes etc. I like seeing them at park ponds though, and throwing bread to them You really shouldn't do that. Bread isn't good for them, especially if you chuck it in the water where it can cause botulism. Ducks have great personality and are very hardy. They don't seem to suffer from colds, mites, heat exhaustion or any of the other chicken maladies. Pity they don't lay better. Indian Runners are supposed to be good layers. |
