How many Eggs did you Sell today?

[heritagebirds]

As fresh eggs don't hardboil very well, do you all "age" them before selling them, or do you give them the secret to boiling fresh eggs? Thanks, I hope to start selling this spring.

i always let them know how i boil my fresh eggs. i boil the water first and add some salt. after the water is boiling, i lower the eggs in the boiling water with a large spoon. do this very carefully. boil them the required time. after boiling, i run cold water on them or let them set in cold water and then i peel. PERFECT FRESH FARM BOILED EGGS EVERY TIME!!

there is another thread on here with different ways to boil fresh eggs. i'll look for it and post it.

4 doz. I could have sold 10 doz. more if I'd had them! I only get 4 - 7 large eggs a day and some days 1 or 2 so I don't have a huge supply. I charge 2.50 if you bring me the carton and 3.00 if you don't.

Friday sold 3 dozen to DH's coworker who then ordered 4 dozen more. Have only gotten 1 egg since

Hoping that doesn't mean they stopped laying.

I am charging $2/dozen. I am in West Virginia, where prices are a bit lower, I think, but I think I am probably not charging enough. Are any of you near me? Do you think I should increase prices?
