Do the eggs just go to waste then or do you need to eat a lot of extra eggs if you can’t sell them for $5/dozen?
Wouldn’t it make sense to lower the price to what people will pay even if it doesn’t cover the cost of the chickens, but at least reduce the cost of the chickens? If it’s not your main source of income and you have the chickens either way wouldn’t some money be better than no money?
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.
You should set up a company website, an Instagram account, and make a Tiktok video, and label the eggs as Anti-Trump Eggs or Eggs for the People and by the People. Then decorate them with rainbow colours as support for human rights and civil rights.

If I did that where I live a mob of MAGA hats would descend on my home within a week, if my neighbor doesn’t shoot me first.
