Do you have a pic of your sticker? That sounds perfect!...I'd buy them but I don't think they'd ship well.

Yeah, I'll find it in a minute

Why not!

I'm not saying I'm morally opposed to it, I would just hate to have to stifle my roosters. I have 7, so it's like duel of the battling crows for several hours every day. I enjoy hearing it. Damien always wins

So technically I am not allowed to have roosters because I do not have a minimum of 2 acres of land. However, all neighbors except the one love my chickens and rooster included. But that one can get my roosters taken. I mean they are snow birds and are only home for a few months out of the year. other than that they are always gone. so I dont see how its a problem. And I always give them eggs.

Sounds like you are doing everything you can. I hope they chill out a little. Good luck with it!

What kind of comb is a BCM supposed to have? I thought it was supposed to have 5 points.

Congrats! 6 months is normal for BCM? Is it the same for most heritage breeds?



What do you charge for a dozen? Clear cartons are a bit expensive.

It's a five point comb, but at the base of the rearmost blade there are a couple of extra points. DQ
Most of my heritage breeds start laying around 20-22 weeks. I read that the BCM may take a little longer, and they did.
I have 96 cents/ carton cost between the stickers and the cartons. I sell them for $3 each, $2.50 if people return MY cartons. It's purely for my wife's and my enjoyment. It's just neat to have our own eggs.

You're cartons/stickers look great! Wish people wanted to buy my duck eggs .When I was getting overwhelmed with eggs couldn't even give them away for free here

I can definitely see why you aim for the pretty eggs. I love the clear cartons. Heck, I'd buy those! Lovely display. Tell your wife that I said she does an excellent job!

People are probably just scared to try something different. You wouldn't believe how the clear cartons, custom stickers, and mixed colors improved sales. I can't wait to add BCM to the mix

And she would tell you that I did it

But she is responsible for 90% of the sales.
Actually, I set up the cartons, but she has an awesome little display set up where she sells them

Me too! On both stealing the idea and needing the hens to lay. Well, I think I have enough hens, they just aren't old enough yet.
