I'm really glad this thread was started. I'm rural too. My cousin and his wife live in a larger town, but not quite in the city either. She sells hers for $2/dozen right now. My girls aren't laying yet... looking forward to October! I won't have much competition, but I was thinking $1.75 - $2 depending on how well they lay. Also, since my garden didn't come close to producing the way it did last year, I was also thinking about trading eggs for veggies with the neighbors whose gardens did do well. (I miss my squash and okra the most!)
