how much do you charge for your eggs?

[chickens^^]

I sell mine to an organic shop in town. They sell 1 dozen chicken eggs for $3.50!! They pay me $1.50 a dozen.

I have a "waiting list" of people willing to pay $3.50/doz for the blue/green eggs we'll get from our Ameraucanas!

Also, have a lady that LOVES the " real dark brown farm eggs" and she would gladly pay $5/doz for them! I gotta get me some Marans!

We living in Lancaaster county have AMish all around that sell 2 dozen for like35 cents!, but people still say they would rather buy fresh eggs from me then THEM

Last year I was selling my Eggs for 1$/Doz. But this year the price is going to 2$/Doz

Me: HELLO NEIGHBORS HOW ARE YOU!!!!
Them: good how are you.
me: good.

I get 1.00 a dozen, again we live in a rural area where lots of people have eggs to sell, so I am just happy to get rid of them since I have more chickens than I need

HI, If anyone is interested...

a half dozen organic free range Hen eggs sell for £1.60 in the UK..thats $6.46 a dozen in US and they must be fertile, graded and producer stamped for re-sale.

So you can tell your customers they are getting a great deal compared with UK folks!

Footnote: A 9 year old boy bought a half doz in a Supermarket and managed to hatch all six in a shoe box by the water heater!

Cheers

we have Amish around here too. They have a large store down the street and they sell their fresh free range eggs for $1.25

Well,
I have not even had my first eggs yet and plan to give several to ladies at church.
Then sell some, ( it I ever have some).
I was telling a local farmer about my plans and she let me know real quick that all the people at the farmer's market sell their eggs for $3.00 a dozen.......She asked me several questions about my chickens and I told her I wanted to get a couple more and she asked me why?????.......So now I feel like she was pressureing me to not sell them for less than $3.00/dozen......

You can sell them for what ever you want. Maybe they are afraid you'll take their business? I am thinking of upping my price to 3.50 a dozen since I'm starting to not even break even again with the increases in feed prices.
