Anyone sell duck eggs? How much is too much?

Yep. If they sell, the price is right. Tell her that she can buy them from you at $5 for 6 and sell them for whatever she considers to be a fair price.

I sell for 5 dollars a dozen, but my friend sells at 6 dollars a dozen. I personally think she is charging too much.

Its more of a novelty item. If your selling out, then its not too much.

Yup!
If you’re selling out, then people are willing to pay the price. It’s only when you can’t sell that you drop a little. Fluctuation happens month by month.
I have so many chicken eggs that I usually sell for $0.2355 an egg, round off to $3.00 for a dozen. Duck eggs $0.3355 per egg, so basically $4 for dozen and that’s EXTREMELY CHEAP. But thats usually for loyal people who buy regularly. Other get charged a doll er extra.
Not fair? My world! My decisions! My choices! And if they sell, they sell.

I sell chicken and duck eggs at our local Farmers Market. Our chicken eggs (two of us vendors sell chicken eggs) sell out at $4.00 per dozen. Of course ducks don't lay like chickens do. And, you can't just buy duck eggs at Vons.

I was selling the duck eggs for $5.00 for six eggs. Another vendor (the one who sells chicken eggs too) told me that is too much. So, I dropped the price to $4.00 for six eggs. She is still telling me that is still too much. I almost always sell out because I only have 2 or 3 to sell. I think she is just upset that I have something different than she does.

Anyone else sell duck eggs and at what price? How much are the chicken eggs in your area compared to duck eggs? Am I asking too much?

I have no problem selling duck eggs for $6. per 1/2 dozen. Ducks eat more than chickens and are harder to keep (messier) but most of all their eggs are exceptional-and not as easy to find, and are simply elegant cuisine!

OMG! If you can get $10 each for them, and they sell, then that is what they are worth. I think it is insane than someone would tell you how to price your eggs. Tell them to mind their own business - literally!
