00:00Ever wondered why we never see turkey eggs in grocery stores or on the Thanksgiving table?
00:05Turns out there's a surprising reason, and it's not just taste.
00:08Turkeys lay only one or two eggs a week, while chickens crank out one almost every day.
00:14And they take longer to mature—seven months compared to a chicken's five.
00:18Plus, turkeys eat more, need bigger space, and cost way more to raise.
00:23So how much for a turkey egg?
00:25Try three oller each. That's $36 a dozen.
00:28And that's why farmers stick with chickens.
00:31Even though chefs say turkey yolks are richer and creamier, it's not enough to make them mainstream.
00:36And believe it or not, in the 1600s, some Europeans feared turkey eggs could cause leprosy.
00:41Yeah, that didn't help their popularity.
00:44Back in the day, fancy spots like Delmonico's served them scrambled and poached.
00:48But by the 20th century, chickens ruled the egg world—cheap, fast, and efficient.
00:54Now, turkey eggs are rare.
00:55And with bird flu hitting over two million turkeys this year alone, prices are only climbing.
01:00So next time you're carving your Thanksgiving bird, just remember—its eggs are basically a luxury item.
01:06So next time you're going to get a full-time charmer.
