I have a question that I'm hoping some people can give me advice on. I'd like to begin selling eggs, packaged chicken meat, and homemade chicken jerky whenever I have extras in my flock. Not looking to run a business just sell or trade here and there. But I'm not sure what the legal aspects of that are? Do I need a license, what steps do I need to take? (I live in Northern Idaho). Any help would be appreciated, thanks!
 
Well, first thing is first, look up what you can and can't do in Idaho, more specifically in your city ordinance. I live in Illinois, but I don't need a license to sell eggs on my property. If I wanted to sell eggs off of my property, I would need a license.

Googling these questions by yourself would be much quicker than you waiting for a response here. Simply put "can I sell.... in Idaho?"

I've done the liberty of searching the egg question for you, according to the Idaho USDA department - IDAPA 02.02.11 "Rules Governing Eggs and Eggs Products" and Title 37, Chapter 15, Idaho Code, "Eggs and Egg Products."
"If an individual has less than 300 birds, that person can sell the eggs without having to adhere to these requirements, however, the eggs must be clean and the container must be labeled with the individual’s name, address, phone number, and the words “UNGRADED EGGS.”'

I hope this helps 😃
