ALRIGHT. My girls are laying now, well not all of them.. but at least 9 of them are laying (out of 15). We got 9 eggs yesterday, and 5 today (they didn't go out today, nasty blizzardy weather out but yesterday was lovely outside even though it was snowy, truth be told there could be more eggs in the coop right now as i've noticed a few laying around this time of day). We clearly have too many eggs for our own needs, at the moment we have 2 doz. in the fridge (granted at least 5 of those are old store bought white eggs, shh).
I want to get rid of some of these eggs, so we're thinking of starting to sell them. It'll be a little while before we get any bites on sales, but i want to at least put the word out there. Whatcha think? I reckon we can get $3.00/ doz. maybe, but I might price down at $2.75. We'll see, the only other person selling eggs that I know of (and this is about 16KM away) is selling their organic brown eggs for $4.50/ doz., organic as organic feed bought from the co-op I mean. Mine are on regular layer right now, but will be switching over to the organic layer after they've finished this lot.
Should I at least advertise and stuffs? I get a mixture of sizes right now, from large to medium though, but they should be all laying large eggs soon enough.
EDIT
I just looked on kijiji, and someone in my area is selling eggs now -_- for $3.00 doz. and $3.50 doz. delivered. LAME, no one was until just now. I think it's the hobby farm on #14 who just built themselves a new chicken house *evil squinty eyes at them*
