Some of my older hens are showing off. They are consistently laying eggs of 2.5+ ounces. Most are brown, but there are some blues and pinks as well. They are NOT double yolkers -- just bigger than the average egg.

DOZEN jumbo size (3.0oz plus by weight) duck eggs. The ducks are Peking, Rouen and Khaki Campbell. In Spain, during my military service, I learned that Europeans use duck eggs in their baking, and it does make a difference. Because the whites of duck eggs have more protein than those of chicken eggs, they will whip up higher when beaten and create more loft (a better crumb) in cakes . This means lighter, higher cakes. Since the yolks are so rich, your cakes may also be richer with duck eggs. Solution: leave out the yolks if you don't need the extra fat (generally you use twice the egg white if not cooking with yolks). When adjusting for duck eggs: a large chicken egg is 2oz with shell & 1.75oz without shell [see Nutritional Info for adjustments]. My duck eggs will have a clear albumin and bright yellow yolk that stands up above the egg white. I only sell cleanly laid eggs (in a straw nest versus on the open ground or mud nest) to my customers. These ducks are my pets, so be assured that they are well cared for. I PACK THE EGGS AS A COMBO OF SIZES FROM 2.50 oz to 3.25 oz. PLEASE LET ME KNOW IF YOU HAVE ANY CONCERNS. I do supplement their green diet with a prepared feed that does NOT have any medications or additives. CAUTION: The risk of getting a foodborne illness from eggs is very low. However, the nutrients that make eggs a high-quality food for humans are also a good growth medium for bacteria. In addition to food, bacteria also need moisture, a favorable temperature and time in order to multiply and increase the risk of illness. In the rare event that an egg contains bacteria, you can reduce the risk by proper chilling and eliminate it by proper cooking. When you handle eggs with care, they pose no greater food-safety risk than any other perishable food.

Compare the price and you'll find this is a good deal on a DOZEN MEDIUM EGGS. These weigh between 1.75 and 1.98 ounces. They taste just as delicious as the larger ones because the hens were hand raised, are well cared for and I make sure they are nutritionally sound. Shell color has nothing to do with the nutritional content of the egg, but these are pretty in colors of white, almost pink, blue, green, brown, and I have one hen laying lavender eggs. You get Easter a few weeks early.

The real deal. Organic elderberries, our farm blueberries (adds extra Vitamin C and antioxidants), raw honey (soothes a sore throat), organic spices to boost antimicrobial power, and orange essential oil to brighten the deep tannin flavors. This formula is developed to work for immune boosting and also used as a cocktail mixer, on oatmeal, in yogurt, over pancakes, with sparkling water, mix with oil as a salad dressings, drizzle over meat, or use in your own creation! During my PhD I studied the effects of processing on blueberry antioxidants and sensory qualities. My method for making our syrup extracts the most beneficial properties from the berries with minimal loss in the goodness. Keeps in the fridge for 3+ months. Immune booster: 1-2 Tablespoons for an adult. 1-2 teaspoons for children 1+ year and up. Take every 3-4 hours when feeling immune compromised. Works best when taken alone just as a sore throat begins to emerge. Or enjoy the delicious flavor in your everyday cooking!

Sage is great with pork, squash, poultry, and more. The fresh herb has a fuzzy texture and the flavor is more subtle than dried. Italians chop it, add it to soft of melted butter, and use it to impart delicious flavor to pasta. Harvested fresh the day of delivery. The photo was taken on a rainy day, so you can see the moisture on the leaves.
