Happy Duck Eggs

Our ducks live in a large free-range flock, where they forage as they please. They have access to a pond, plenty of space, and organic feed. They are also protected by a flock of geese and our family. Our land and animal management is regenerative, meaning we use environmentally friendly practices that support local wildlife and flora. They are happy, well-cared-for ducks, and that is reflected in their eggs.
