Turkey eggs on Christmas Day

[Accy cyclist]

I had a couple of free range chicken eggs for my tea last night Ok,the yolks were nice and yellow like they're supposed to be and not pale watery yolks like battery hen's eggs are,but they tasted salty and peppery to me. Still,i'll only be buying free range from now on as the cruelty towards battery hens is on a par with slaughter house cruelty..

The colour of the yolks is determined by what they are fed, nothing to do with their living conditions.

Battery hens are fed on cheap food while free range hens are "well fed",according to some. Cheap food affects the quality of the yolk,so i've been told.

Had a goose egg for Tea last night. Very yummy.

The cat was very interested in the empty shell after I'd pushed her off the full shell.

Another bloody daft thread. Give me strength. It’s like walking into an asylum when all the staff are looking the other way or round the back having a tab.

Yep - you are in the CC cafe

Exactly

From my experience,the cheaper the egg the paler the yolk. I've yet to have a free range egg with a pale yellow coloured yolk. Are you saying that it's additives and not natural food that make free range yolks such a rich deep yellow in colour?

Why not put threads on ignore or certain posters on ignore, instead of coming onto the threads you don't like to have a moan?

That's what i thought,but i thought it was best to let someone else say it to him/her rather than the OP themself.

I think this one is interesting not daft. Why are duck and goose eggs consumed as luxury items and other farmed poultry eggs such as turkey not common - i have never seen them for sale.
Is it because of the taste? Is it uneconomic? Or has no one thought to market them?
I feel the need to search them out and try one.
