Default Ad-Duck Egg Shells

We have white duck eggs available for sale. The nice strong shells are
great for Easter eggs, Christmas tree ornaments, and other crafts such
as Pysanka. You may order them blown or unblown*. We clean the eggs
with a water/vinegar solution (16/1 ratio), but if you prefer, you may
order eggs that have just been gently cleaned with plain water to
remove surface soil. Blown eggs are drilled in one end (your choice
of which end) with a Blas-fix drill (approx.1/16") and emptied with a
Blas-fix blower. We rinse the insides of the eggs thoroughly with cold
water using the Blas-fix blower. We use no bleach or chemicals other
than vinegar. Prior to blowing, the eggs are weighed on a Jiffy Egg
Scale and sorted according to USDA egg size criteria; extra large and
jumbo. Our egg measurements are as follows. The first number is the
average measurement in inches with a tape end over end and the second
is the measurement around the middle.

Jumbo: 7-5 7/8
Extra Large: 6 5/8-5 5/8

The shells are 50¢ each. We add $1.00 to the total to help cover our
packaging costs.

We ship via United States Postal Service (USPS) Priority Mail but will
be happy to send the eggs another way if you wish.

If you have any questions, please feel free to contact me via e-mail
at

If you would like to place an order, please e-mail me at
I will send you an order form via a download or
copied and pasted into an e-mail which ever way you prefer. After I
receive your order I will send you the total amount due. We accept
personal checks, money orders and certified bank checks.

risk of freezing and breaking during shipping.
