Can anyone suggest some places in Northampton that sell duck eggs? The supermarkets don't seem to stock them plus I would rather put the money straight in the pocket of a local producer if possible.

You can try Antony Garrett Game Dealers in Flore. They can normally get anything you ask. I get Ostrich there quite regulary and I know they do free range eggs. Their web site is http://www.gamedealers.net/

Yeah hence "the supermarkets don't seem to stock them". I tried all the usual suspects round here and no one had any.

The Settle kennels near Finedon sell them sometimes.

Good shout on Smiths. I shop there a lot. They hadn't had any in so gave up but just gave them a ring and they had some come in so I will pop over.

Nice morning for a drive out that way too cool
