The protein in eggs differ depending on its use. If you are to get a large egg that weighs about 50 grams, a raw egg will have a total protein of 6.3 grams. If you are going to boil it, it will now have 6.3 grams of protein. If you will fry it in oil, it will now have 6.8 grams of protein.

Scrambled eggs only have 5 grams of protein, poached eggs have 6.2 grams of protein, and an omelette has 5.3 grams of protein. Now, if you are going to take into consideration a raw duck egg which weighs around 70 grams, it has a total protein of 9 grams, while a 9 grams of raw quail egg will have 1.2 grams of protein.
