Egg stamps

[Hangs With Chicks]

I was wanting the small ink stamps that people put on their eggs. Wondering if anyone has done this before and where they got their stamp? Is there a special kind of ink to use with eggs?

Thanks all.

hello @Hangs With Chicks
Yes there is: you need food grade ink (same as required for any food, there isn't a special one just for eggs). As for the stamp, do you want a ready made image/ text or something bespoke? Typically firms supply both stamps and ink, and (warning!) those targeted at backyard chicken owners are grossly overpriced!

I want a stamp with like our last name on it or the name of our coop "the egg-alo mart" king of the hill fans would get it lol.

so bespoke then; do a search for 'custom-made manual egg stamp' or similar terms, and choose between the firms offering the service in your country. The word 'manual' should filter out those catering to the commercial sector.
