Too cute :lol: I haven't tried giving mine raw egg yet. They don't seem all that fond of cooked egg,so I don't know if they will like the raw any better?

ahahaha i love the egg on her chin and face! that is so cute! when spring comes i'll have to make them some egg. they seemed like it cooked (thankfully) as i do NOT want to clean up after they eat raw lol.

raw does make for some cute messes though :P

of course n__n quail eggs are pretty okay to feed in my opinion.

duck eggs and goose eggs probably arent bad either in smaller amounts, but im unsure if their nutrient content might be a bit high xD i would personally not feed duck eggs since theyre so messy and not salmonella tested here as theyre not usual in store.
ostrich eggs would probably be good too~~

I get bantam chicken eggs from my family - they are about half the size of a normal chicken egg. My blueys get them somewhat regularly. I'd feed quail eggs if I had access to the - I'm really lucky to get the bantam eggs for free.

I feed bantam eggs in a water dish whole, so they can push it up against the sides and crack it themselves.

Great photos! i love feeding egg, they always look so satisfied! I have a little eastern with a failure to thrive, a problem she's grown up with from being a runty little one, lol. Anyway, she constantly requires a high energy/high calorie diet and whilst I have to be a little careful not to overdo it, I can afford to be more liberal on the egg side of things. She makes it in to an ordeal, with egg covering every surface and all over her from head to her no-toes! Loved the pictures, thank you! Looking forward to my next eggy day! :woo:
