egg selling

[U_Stormcrow]

The state may define it in other ag codes, or consider a sink to be self evident.

I've read the whole of the Code, and keyword searched as well. "Three Compartment Sink" is a "term of art", which has a recognized definition in the industry quite apart from the dictionary offering for individual words.

I was being a bit tongue in cheek, sorry it did not convey well in print - but if I installed drains with p-traps in three plastic popcorn bowls, and had a source of hot and cold running water to fill them, it would meet the state's rules. More likely I'll recycle the top third of some food grade plastic containers, so I can use the existing threading, and don't need to source flanges.

there's also an egg stand a few miles out and they do 5 dollars, but they've got a much wider selection.

What kind of selection?
I'd say you were good with $4 then.

I'm in an economically depressed area of the country - and am currently giving mine away to people who need them FAR more than I

Bless your heart. Thank you.

too much risk of disease selling them to customers, we’re at a liability

Unfortunate, that.

My wife makes a challah-like bread with her sourdough starter and some of our eggs. Its good with a bit of fresh butter, maybe some jam - but its spectacular as the base for french toast. At which point you should probably call it "pain perdu", and really play it up as high class, not day old leftovers. The base also works well with dried fruits, like a cinnamon raisin bread (I prefer dried cranberries - but whatever makes you happy)

/edit More seriously, check out your State's NPIP certification. Mine is free, and they test the whole flock, twice yearly, for two forms of salmonella. No guarantees, of course, but it does help manage risk.

Unless its chocolate chip cookie dough.

That is in a class all its own.

Seriously tho, even the most stringent food codes consider baked goods "low risk".

But baking cooks it...

i’m sorry, that’s the official rules of our area, we gotta be safe. plus we have to egg wash the rolls

Yeah, follow the rules. I object to them, but yeah, CYA.

well now that most, if not all, of our nine chickens are laying, we’re going to need to get rid of them because as a small family of three we certainly cannot eat them all. i was planning on selling them to our neighbors to make a couple bucks for chicken feed and other expenses but i wanted to know, how much do you see your eggs for? we’re in central MA and i’m planning on four dollars is that too much? what do you think would be the right amount?

I sell bantam hatching eggs for $5 a dozen. Do you have to have a perment were you live?

 

[Egg Snatcher]

I gift eggs then I get gifted cash. It's strange how it works like that.

That's smart! I just new where I live to sell eating eggs you had to have a permit.

Depending on laws, labeling "for animal feed" can also work.
