13 dozen today

Sold 2 dozen today.
My mother in law has a huge network of friends 'cause she goes to several Bible studies and coffees throughout the week. I give her a small cooler which holds 5 dozen and she just lets her friends know she's got eggs today. Most of these ladies are from pretty affluent neighborhoods and paying $2/doz for really nice fresh brown locally grown eggs is a treat.

Right now the eggs are mostly large and x-large with a few jumbo sized. I rubber band the cartons so they don't open and break eggs. In another month or so the eggs will even out in size to more x-large and jumbos, and I should be able to charge $2.50 or $3.00/doz especially in winter when not so many people have backyard chicken eggs.

I pay my mother in law with all the eggs she wants to use for herself.
