I buy fresh eggs from our neighbors across the street I pay a buck a dozen above what they cost at the store. But the quality is beyond compare. They are longtime livestock ranchers. Few years ago we had a real mild winter and their hens where laying out of control. At that point they were just trying to give the eggs away because they couldn’t even sell enough at the local farmers markets. Eggs in the stores were going for 98cents locally.
Hell, I'm givin' eggs away free.
Chickens are laying 6 doz. a week.
We may eat 8-9 eggs a week.
I'd rather give 'em away than be bothered by folks driving up wanting to buy them.
Farm eggs sell for about $2 doz here.
