Size and quantity of eggs would depend on the breed of bantam you're talking about.
Some bantam eggs are not much larger than a quail egg--TINY! Others are more the size of a regular small egg, 1 1/2 ounces or so. I'm sure you can charge whatever people will pay for the eggs. I was just reading the "how much do you charge" thread, and it looks like people charge anything from less than a dollar a dozen to more than 5 dollars a dozen for regular chicken eggs depending on where they are and what people will pay in their area.
Exactly! You're still learning and we are all here to learn from each other!
My silkies lay bigger eggs than my bantam cochins. The bantam cochins seem to lay a round egg and the silkies lay more pointed eggs. But, the silkie eggs are still smaller than my standard cochin eggs.
Saltiena.....Banty's, like most hens, will lay between 5 and 6 eggs a week...under healthy conditions, with proper feed.
There are no stupid questions on here....we all have to learn somehow...and asking is the best way to learn.
What you charge is dependant on how much they go for locally. Here in Indiana, I get 1.00 a dozen at the local hardware store...but my regular customers, buy me a bag of feed every other month...and I try to get them 2 dozen a week. I like the barter system better than money...especially between friends.
Here is a picture of one of my Cochin Banty Frizzle eggs...compared to a C Cell Battery......
