What are pullet eggs? Pullet eggs are small, extra-rich eggs laid by young chickens. A pullet is a chicken of less than a year old, but pullet eggs are really only produced during the first 4 weeks or so of her laying career. A favourite of chefs and foodies, they are nevertheless often refused by stores due to their small size, and many end up going to waste. Pullet eggs vs. regular eggs
Pullet eggs have bright yellow yolks, so they look sunny and cheerful on your plate. Because of their small size, they also have a higher proportion of yolk to white, making them richer than regular eggs. If you like adding an extra egg yolk to your recipes, you’ll love pullet eggs. Fans of this dainty egg also claim that they hold together better, which makes them particularly good for poaching or frying.
