You have inspired me to put pictures on my egg boxes I have a nice pic of my 3 hens together I'll use that. 

Share a pic then 

I have now sold 5 boxes! 1 at hubbys work, 1 from down the road, 1 to the woman over on the corner then her friend came and bought 2!

Only got one box left now

Well done Cammi, now you'll have to get more chickens to keep up with the demand for your wonderful eggs!!!

I would definitely buy those eggs!  The eggs look lovely, the presentation is brilliant, and I love the personal touch of having the girls' names on the label.

I notice you have a jar of vaseline for the poor girl who laid that HUGE one.

Handy hint,
if you put the big eggs at the front of the box you do not get the 'nutcracker' effect.
It can avoid breaking a thin shelled egg .

That was my 'show' box the open one, i put them that way to show off the blue eggs, but yes the other boxes i have done the other way round    not as though my girls ever seem to have thin shells yet. 

Could get done for trade description in the label, I realised that I put Sally on and she hasn't started laying yet

well done i was sooooooooo proud of my girls when i sold their eggs.

I'm pleased you are on the move with the eggs, Cammi

My friend is a hairdresser, but will only do my hair for free as she just loves doing it and having a good chat at the same time. I in turn, give her eggs. She's getting the poorer deal at the moment as Ive only 2 chooks, but she commented the other day that the taste is second to none and that the size of the yolks are so much bigger than any shop bought variety. I think that after a while we dont realise just how different ours are to shop bought ones. We are just SO lucky! I cant wait till I get my new hens to increase my production.

Really pleased you are selling your eggs well   You soon won't be able to keep up with demand....a good excuse to get more chickens I think

My 'egg shop' was actually closed today, cause i dont have enough eggs!  My skelter only has 5 eggs on it.  I am thinking of getting one more so i should get a box of eggs a day lol

Well done Cammi they look really lovely. A chap from our lottie sells eggs 1 doz for £1.50. I used to have hens at our other house but can't have them here. At the moment I haven't got time for them on the plot but maybe 1 day I'll have some more. I loved having them.

I would really not be upset try giving out a few to neighbours your friendly with at first. That’s what I did and soon they were offering to make a it a regular thing and offered to pay me for a dozen eggs a week.

then two other neighbours asked to buy them as well along with my in laws wanting eggs but now we also have a butcher that wants to buy our eggs he sold over 6 dozen like hot cakes now wants to make it a regular thing.

 I was worried I would not be able to get rid of eggs and they would go off as I myself only eat them now and again and same with hubby we have chickens because we like them the eggs are a plus.

so DON’T give up Give them out as Free Samples at first you will see they will be begging to have them. I only sell them for a pound as well bantam eggs 50p
