How many eggs do you get weekly? What do you do with the extra eggs?

[csaylorchickens]

I m getting three a day from four hens one went broody so she is setting on fertilized eggs for a hatch (6eggs) so an egg a day from my faverolles! That's pretty good! 21 a week. I have 36 in refrig right now so once I get a solid 50 I'm going to start packaging them for loaves and fishes

I have 8 hens. 2 RIR and 6 Gold Comets. We have been getting between 6-7 eggs a day. So do I have a hen that's a dud??
I know for sure that both RIRs are laying. Do I need to worry about the one that's not laying yet or is she just slow?

I have four red hens (RIR's and Red Sex Links. I don't know which is which since they all look a like except for two are smaller and one has lighter red feathers on her breast), one Black Sex Link, two Australorps and a Barred Rock that are old enough to lay. I'm up to five eggs consistantly a day. I have four younger hens. Three Barred Rocks and a New Hampshire Red although she doesn't look like any of the pictures of a NHR I've seen. She's the color of a Buff Orpington with a few black feathers in her tail. She's pretty though. So far we don't have any extras. My husband eats eggs for breakfast every morning. I only eat them 3-4 days a week. Mostly because I don't have time to cook before I leave for work. When I do have extras I'll give them away to friends and family and then sell what is left. I like the food pantry idea. Not sure if we can do it where I live.

I have 6 red sex links, and the are laying 5-6 eggs every day, and have for the past three months. My question is, when do they slow down or stop for the winter?

They will slow down when it starts to get cold and their is less hours in the day. they need about 14 hours of sunlight to make their best eggs! So they should start to lay less eggs soon.

Im getting 6 a day from pullets that just came in to lay a couple weeks ago. I have 11 and I know at least 2-3 still aren't laying. I'm glad they started before winter as Im guessing now they will keep going all the way through.

We get between 65-70 eggs per week now since about seven went molting or on winter hiatus. We were getting almost 100/week a month ago.
