  • Yeah, I took econ too. I’m just asking if you have any egg-bird specific experience. If you know about the details of dealing with each kind of bird and the complications that come with the different types. Anyone can econsplain. But do you have industry specific knowledge? Are you successful in this industry? Do you have actionable information that leads to success? Or if are you just repeating highschool level generalities.

    There is this idea out there that people shouldn’t take unsolicited advice, especially from people that don’t have any experience in what you are trying to do. So I’m asking the questions to see if you are offering anything of value or are just repeating things without providing that value.





  • Eggs go to waste. There is no way we can eat them as fast as they come. It’s not really even a factor of price. We could list them as free and even though the stores are sold out we’d still not get rid of them. Selling eggs is similar to the worst parts of Facebook marketplace. People say they will come and don’t. They show up and the eggs aren’t good enough because you don’t feed them the same exact feed they would if they had chickens. They can only buy if there are at least five dozen available. The eggs aren’t white, or blue, or green, or whatever their kink is.

    Egg buyers are the most picky people on earth. We did get lucky last year with one couple that would always take whatever we had. But we don’t actually set a price. We live in poverty. We let anyone that shows up pay whatever they want. These people covered our feed costs but that was about it.



  • I have chickens. People refuse to pay $5 a dozen for our pasture eggs. Even though that’s cheaper than any other eggs in the area. I’m also sitting on a dozen goose eggs. A goose egg is three times the size of a chicken egg. They want to pay less than three times the cost of a chicken egg, even though geese only lay during the spring and only lay every other day.
