Question is, is it just chicken eggs?
My sister is allergic to chicken eggs. When she lived close by and I had
ducks, I'd save duck eggs for her. She loved them and was fine with
them.
A real treat for her was turkey eggs when I had a couple of turkey hens!
Their texture is closer to chicken eggs than duck, and the flavor is
very rich. She could also eat guinea eggs.
The eggs of any bird can be eaten, many have slightly different
textures. Best quiche I _ever_ made was made from fresh Ostrich egg.
I made it for a potluck. ;-) An Ostrich egg holds about a quart or so
and the yolk to white ratio is higher. They whip up much lighter and
fluffier than chicken eggs tho' due to a denser consistency to the white.
