We did away with our geese during last years bird flu.
The only thing that I miss is the noise.

IMHO ducks are dirty feckers, lay more than chickens, are as tough as fuck to eat, but great fun to watch.
Scrambled duck eggs for breakfast today.

You better love them cakes buddy, cos ducks are a handful to keep. I would find a health food shop or tell the wide to use more baking powder! (eek)

The wife prefers the duck eggs for baking. They make better cakes.

Ducks are good eating, but poor layers and very very dirty animals. Find the slightest puddle and then stamp around in it till they make a swamp. Have done ducks, wouldn't do again.

I like the idea of eggnog. There is one that is like a butter, but I failed to replicate it. Gorgeous!
There is thread around here somewhere...

Eggnog, sounds like my next progect. Always have plenty of eggs as I have a light in the chicken house.

Whilst I am not that keen on it myself another option is eggnog. It has been demonstrated that the alcohol will render the mixture sterile over time.

Which got me to thinking...instead of vinegar could you use 40% neutral?

Hi Mash. I must admit a bit of envy, ducks and chickens are on my to do list when I retire.

You can cook eggs with alcohol and no heat so I am not sure about the long term storage idea. The alcohol would probably get through the shell and solidify the white.
