About 6 dozen a week from 20 chickens. We get plenty to eat we also use them to barter

I sell around 3 a day at this time of year, and provide a complementary box for visitors to our farm holiday cottage.  That will soon drop, however, as we breed rare breeds and the eggs will be incubated or sold as hatching eggs until late Summer.  Our customers understand this and watch out for the Eggs for Sale sign being chalked up again in August.

I no longer sell due to living in a forest but where I used to live we sold roadside and would easily sell 60-100 dozen a week.
