    Need Ideas

    Hi all. Looking for your brilliance. My partner went a bit bonkers with ordering chicks and last year. Fast forward to now - we are getting about 4-5 dozen a day. We live in the bubs of LA but have a big piece of property in-between two schools (read: a butt-ton of foot traffic), so we are...

    Selling eggs- people not paying for eggs

    Was just wondering if anyone was having the same problem I’ve been having selling eggs. Ive been selling eggs by the side of the road last year and this year. Last year was going great, selling dozens every week. I have a small container for the customers to put the money in. My sign was...

    If you sell eggs....

    If you sell your eggs, Do you wash them immediately after getting them out of the coop? Or right before you sell them?

    Hi y'all, kind of new.

    Finally getting back on here again, it's been awhile. This is really kind of a difficult app to navigate and figure out exactly where to go. Anyways, good to be back inside the world of chickens! 😁🐥🐓 P.S. I desperately need ideas for naming my chicken hobby. Small scale, 1 acre, on top...

    How long can my eggs be left outside?

    Hello! I sell eggs outside my house in a little shaded crate. They never stay outside for more than 3 days. I know that chickens collect their eggs for up to 2 weeks at a time before they begin sitting them until they hatch. Since they are shaded, they never receive direct sun (unless in the...

    Another attempt to sell duck-eggs

    Hi Friends, i did not thought it would be so hard to sell duck eggs around Charleston, WV! In our first attempt on a farmer's market we barely broke even, just earned the money we'd paid for the table. I don't want to become stinky rich with duck-eggs, but it would be great if they'd pay the...

    My new Self Serve Egg stand

    Ever since I started raising chickens for Eggs, I have been selling to my co-workers where I work. It started getting to be a chore to find enough customers to buy my abundance of eggs from my flock of about 30 hens. Earlier this spring, the company clamped down on people selling at work (I miss...

    NPIP, Import Permit, and Certificate of Veterinary Inspection.

    Eggs being imported have to be NPIP certified in a lot of places. But there's the import permit as well. Now, I'm wondering is the seller responsible for all that or does the buyer have to have the import permit? Cause I saw that the annual import permit form is for the out of state sellers to...

    How long are my eggs safe? Chickens & Ducks

    I retrieve eggs from the chicken coop / duck shack 1x a day. Should I be checking more than this? Once I get the eggs wash them and refrigerate them how long before they expire? (shouldn't be eaten or sold? ) Surprise! I got a couple of unsexed turkens last year and they are both roosters...

    How long are my eggs safe? Chickens & Ducks

    I have a few questions about the eggs and consumption of them. I retrieve eggs from the coop once a day where my chickens and ducks coexist. Should I be retrieving more than 1x a day? From the time I retrieve the eggs wash them and refrigerate them - how long before they are spoiled or not good...

    Egg Laws in the U.S.A

    We all like our eggs but what happened when we have more than we can eat? Well we want to sell them of course so! Selling eggs supplements cost of caring for our birds. You may want to get out there right away and start selling right? Well what if I told you that in the United States that there...

    Everyone checking out their hard work.

    We’re finally getting more and more eggs. Most of the birds have finished their molts and are getting back to work. It has been pretty cold for the past week, which is why we have muddy eggs. It was finally beautiful today so everyone was out free ranging.

    For those selling eggs...

    Do you wash the eggs that you sell? At what point? How do you store the eggs between collection time and sale time? How long is that time period usually? Did I ask enough questions? haha...

    New part time free ranging - getting less eggs

    Hi Folks! We have 14 2yro girls in a VERY large coop and run. Recently we have been able to let them free range for at least part of the day (Yay!) but we are seeing our egg production drop from about 12 - 13 a day, to 10, and now about 8. I know they can find hiding spots but we have not been...
