a while ago I mentioned cooking up a budgie egg before and so this morning when I did so again I thought to take a piccie before adding it to their food for those that were interested.

So the yolk cooks normally, but the "white" sets clear! How fascinating!! Thanks Nerwen. Any ideas why the white stays clear?

No idea at all, sorry. It was a surprise last year when I cooked the first one.

 

Jelly-eggs

:( That's a perfect way to describe them, kinda felt like a hard jelly in the hand too.

For some reason I can’t see the picture? It must be just normal for Budgie eggs, Duck eggs whites don’t turn out so white at hens eggs when you cook them.

So why do you feed them budgie eggs, not just chicken eggs? Is it better for them?

I give them chicken eggs normally. I just feel instead of wasting the eggs by chucking them I can cook then to add to their fresh food as well. I wouldn't say it's better for them.

 

Norm - are they working for you yet?
