Just sold my first eggs, im uber macho now

I just sold 10 Quail eggs for $3.90 (thats all this lady had that ive befriended at my local super market)

I know they can go for way more but it is what it is. Money is money


How do you farmers package your Quail eggs nicely?

I sell mine for $4dz. There are standard and jumbo cartons on eBay, other sites and James Marie Farms sells good quality too. I put mine in plastic food containers and people just return them to me each delivery.

I just sold my first eggs yesterday (chicken eggs though). I too was thinking of buying strong egg boxes and taking a deposit on them, then just swapping the boxes when they are returned. I hope it will work out for a handful of customers, which is all I need.

All of my regular customers return cartons or containers when they pick up new eggs. A good clear plastic carton, even the Styrofoam last a long time.

That's the idea I was kinda hoping to replicate - thanks

Going to formally deliver a batch of eggs for the first time tomorrow. 12 for $4.00 Canadian.

I found an amazing container. The little 6oz 170g plastic blackberry packs at your local grocery store I'll make sure to remind granny to keep it for the next deliver to make the switch and keep it green

Good for you! I sold my first eggs last week- assuming things work out I may at least be able to pay for their feed.

All the best
