I price mine at $3 a dozen. I have 14 hens laying about a dozen a day and I have our dozen in the fridge door and rarely have any leftover. I posted an ad on the craigslist.com for my area and love it! <BR/><BR/>Hope this helps in your decision!<BR/>SarahMrs. Laughterhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13712750418668042090noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9010626472834900402.post-24244042335957538162008-08-23T23:06:00.000-06:002008-08-23T23:06:00.000-06:00We were in Walmart tonight, and they had 'cage fre...We were in Walmart tonight, and they had 'cage free brown eggs' for about $2 a dozen. Whenever I get into the city, I'm going to try and check at the health food stores for comparison. I guess I'm mostly curious!Laurahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02480853709492521200noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9010626472834900402.post-51056750494673043382008-08-23T10:29:00.000-06:002008-08-23T10:29:00.000-06:00We looked into getting our own chickens, but local...We looked into getting our own chickens, but local ordinances don't allow it. :( During the summer we buy eggs from an Amish stand . They're free range eggs, but not organic (their produce is "spray-free"). Yesterday's dozen had brown, white, and green eggs, and I think they were $1.50. There's also a store in town where the owner sells her chicken and duck eggs--not sure how much the ducks ones are but the chicken eggs are $2/dozen.mentalutopiahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13456078964135908356noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9010626472834900402.post-17268222230964351392008-08-21T22:37:00.000-06:002008-08-21T22:37:00.000-06:00Thanks, Toni!

Part of me would love to put a sign out and sell eggs right here at home, but then again, that sort of gives people 'permission' to come to the door, and I'm not sure I want that. I used to deliver them when I went to town - I had several families, and I'd just give them a call, they'd leave a cooler on the porch or meet me at the door and I'd drop off eggs/pick up money. Now, with the price of gasoline, I haven't been going to town as regularly. We used to go weekly, but now we only go once or twice a month. So...I'm not sure what I'm going to do! :)Laurahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02480853709492521200noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9010626472834900402.post-24285727134946005592008-08-20T23:17:00.000-06:002008-08-20T23:17:00.000-06:00Yay chicken!!

I'm from Central Minnesota...so it's probably a similar area to you. I thought that was a little astronomical when you can get them for $1.20 at the grocery store (I know they aren't the good eggs).Tonihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10571955253528051993noreply@blogger.com
