Balot Vendor

Balot is a fertilized duck egg with a nearly-developed embryo inside. It is quite a delicacy here in the Philippines.  The yellow part is the egg and the hairy part is the duckling. You can choose the egg based on how old it is based on its development period when it was boiled. Normally the youngest would be 14 or 15 days and would reach up to 20 or 21 days. They usually sell 15 days, 16 days, 18 days and 21 days.Each age of duck egg also tells you how big the duckling is inside.The older it is, the bigger it gets!
