What is the EXACT protein content of a whole duck egg ?!


Question: What is the EXACT protein content of a whole duck egg !?
i was wondering if a duck egg has more protein as compared to hen's!. I tried different sites over the internet but couldn't find the right answer!. Somewhere they say that a duck egg contains about 15gms of protein and a white egg about 5!.5gms, whereas somewhere else you'll see that a duck egg and white egg they both have almost the same amount of protein i!.e!. 10 to 11gms!. Is it only dependent on its size !? I wanted to add around 90gms of protein in my current diet, so which one should i choose a duck egg or a white egg!? whichever has got more protein, i will include it!.Www@FoodAQ@Com
