Blown Goose Eggs for Art
These eggs offer a unique and beautiful medium to create exquisite
egg art. To supply this growing art practice with the supplies they need, we blow out and clean infertile
duck and goose eggs shortly after they are laid. We make a very small hole (just 7/32'') on the large end of the egg and drain the contents of the egg. Next, we rinse the egg and disinfect it with distilled water. To offer top quality eggs, we candle the shells to ensure that there aren't any cracks, stains or flaws in the eggs. We then use a muriatic acid solution to get the egg as white as possible, making it the perfect art medium. However, we can skip the acid wash step if you prefer a more naturally colored egg, or if you are planning on dying the egg.
We have the
blown duck and goose eggs available year round, although the
blown goose eggs sell out faster, as we can only produce them during the Spring.
Blown Goose Eggs are sized according to their circumference. We measure the circumference by encircling the egg at the longest possible spot, longitudinally along the upright egg.
