Puzzled with the price.

Right now I have different sizes of egg for sale.
Is there any different prices between the Large size eggs and Medium size eggs?

I don't sell eggs but the better the layer and taste, the more cents added to the price. IMO.

I don't charge by the size. I usually give most of my eggs away to my friend's son in law who's a body builder.

In stores the large eggs sell for a little more. Not much. Recipes always call for large eggs, so that's a reason for a preference.

What I do is sell by weight. Most of my hens lay large to extra large eggs. So I will slip smaller or pullet eggs in the carton with some of the extra large or jumbo eggs and just make sure the average weight is at least at the extra large size. My customers don't mind this.
Lately, I've been eating most of the pullet eggs until they start to get bigger.

Thank you all! I notice that in ShopRite store, some Large size eggs sold for $7.99 a dozen. Almost $0.01 per gram. That's a fair way maybe.

I like to give buyers a mix of sizes and colors. I think somehow it feels more authentic to buying backyard eggs vs. store bought, however if I had a larger commercial operation and was selling much more than I am I would think the need for consistency would be important and would use and egg scale and sort and price accordingly.

I have med. eggs and large eggs. I only sell my large eggs (just 2 cartons a week) and eat the Med. eggs. The reason why, I am proud of the big eggs. I don't have any bantams.

I only sell in mixed dozens. They're labeled "mixed free range" on the cartons. Everyone I sell to knows what they're getting.

Where do you live? Egg prices vary quite a bit depending on location, among other factors.

Is the $7.99 for organic free range or something?
