Khaki Campbell
A tier
Khaki Campbell eggs are the champion duck-layer’s product—white to lightly tinted, abundant, and richly yolked without requiring a meat-breed carcass system. Flavour is classic rich duck, perfect for daily baking and breakfast when you want duck eggs at chicken-like volume. The breed that made duck eggs practical for small farms. Slightly smaller than some heavy Muscovy eggs but far more plentiful.
Also known as: Khaki Campbell egg, Campbell duck egg
