Hi Chickenbythesea---
I suppose it could get complex if someone became ill and it was traced to the eggs (my eggs).....but, isn't cooking something that eradicates any potential harm (I'm thinking salmonella here).
I guess one could always get a waiver from the institution that took the donation. (saying that they understand that eggs were processed by safe handling and they have the obligation to safely handle eggs and store and cook properly. )
Hey Nonny---
Once I lived in Brisbane.. (St. Lucia actually while my father was attending University of Qld. Then in Indooropilly -- while attending St. Peter's as a child. That was probably before most people here were born since I just turned older than dirt on my last birthday -- but it is fun to think back). Prices are very high there for the healthy and free range eggs. You could fall back on egg selling if you ever needed to. All the nicer to hopefully have the people that you give eggs to appreciate them. I bought an Eglu GO, and with the delivery came these egg cartons that hold 4 eggs. It just seems like the perfect gift to me. You have lucky friends.
If I add the cost of coop, feed, medicine, oyster shell, grit, wood shavings, run, chicken treats---etc. And divide by eggs---- then I would probably be still loosing out if I sold for $7.00 per dozen. ;O) -- I think I should write a book about the $899.99 egg.
I guess too, I would look in the eggs with flashlight-- >is that modern day 'candeling' before I gave them away. I heard that there is something called a 'lash' that can be in the egg...a piece of the chicken's innards. Wouldn't it be awful to give away an egg and the person who gets it finds something unexpected.
I think eggzy is computing me a cost of 25-some cents per egg...and I am mostly only entering the feed for expenses....so that would be $3 per dozen just to break even.
