I sold silkie eggs. The bidding went well most of the time. I was very pleasantly shocked many times. I had 6 silver partridge eggs go for $140.00 once and several times they went for much more than I would expect. Then there are times that the starting bid was all i got. I didn't get many bad feedback and right now they are over a year old so no longer on my score. There was alot of reading to my ads. I described in detail everything that would interest somebody and protect me against claims. I added they where NPIP and AI tested and clean. Offered paperwork if they wanted it. Good pictures. The packing job is also important. I wrapped mine in bubble wrap and taped them closed. Placed air cell up in an egg flat cut to fit the amount of eggs and size of box. I put another on top and taped them together to make a bundle and placed that in the middle of the box with shredded paper under around and over the bundle so it sat snug in the box to prevent jostling. I offered double boxing for an extra fee.
It's gonna happen that the po breaks an egg or two or even just cracks one. I always added extra to make up for that if I could. I rarely packed eggs on top of each other.
I really miss the selling and packing of eggs. I just have 1 pair of silkies now. I'm not able to take care of them like they need so I sold all of mine except for the 1 pair. i've hatched out some this spring to add a couple girls but I mostly have LF now. They aren't high maintenance plus I always lost silkies in winter no matter what we did to keep them warm.
