My Mum used to have most of the Goose eggs for blowing, then she used to then decorate them like the Faberge eggs.
Most of the other types were either used for hatching or sold as fertile hatching eggs.

Mum also had several tortoises for many years, and they used to mate and lay little eggs too.
That’s so interesting Mups

Sounds similar to Ostrich eggs Keezoy! I’ve never tried them though...

I wonder if it qualifies as an egg Harbal. To be honest, I’ve never opened the Mcdonalds muffin to check but I’ll definitely do it next time. Mcdonalds’s isn’t one of my favourite takeaways. Most of their stuff tastes like cardboard!

I’ve tried fish roe. Very tasty made with Indian spices. Its grainy in the mouth but I like it.
