for an example does a fresh turkey egg, a duck egg, and a robins egg all taste like a regular chicken egg?

I can't say anything for the turkey and robins eggs, but the chicken and duck have their own distinctive flavors...

Before the Europeans landed on our shores, eggs were not a regular ingredient in Native cuisine. In fact, the only data I could find was from the 1965 edition of ''The Art of American Indian Cooking'' by Yeffe Kimball and Jean Anderson, which states that wild fowl eggs were a source of protein for the Plains nations and were obtained by hunting the nests of partridge, quail, duck and plover.

Well, we use them now and they are a treasure more than a curse. Eggs got bad press for a few years because of cholesterol content and a lot of people have adjusted their diets to limit their intake to either whites only or three to four whole eggs a week. One egg yolk contains about 213 milligrams of cholesterol, so if you do not suffer from high cholesterol and/or diabetes, they are a good source of quality protein. The American Heart Association and most doctors and nutritionists suggest limiting your cholesterol intake to 300 milligrams per day. So, if you must, maybe half a yolk is better than none (only yolking).

there is a slight difference.. but get a mind set that things aren't going to kill you . But be mindful.. until you get use to using such eggs.. do not immediately use them to bake a cake with! (size of content is different)
If you find that after you crack an egg open, and it's green.. make sure you cook up a slab of ham to go with them!
