We sell our goose eggs every year (for eating only, not as fertile) and have a large demand, people coming from afar to buy them. We charge £1 per egg which the customers are quite happy with.
Does anyone else sell their goose eggs on a regular basis and what sort of prices do you charge?

[Womble]

Seriously?  We just give ours away to people who buy hen / duck eggs, as a bit of a novelty!

Really? Our sales defray the cost of the feed during the rest of the year out of the laying season (approx 5/6 months)  and contribute towards the other livestock feed costs.

We "sell" our goose eggs for 60p each, although it's rare that somebody actually buys one.  Our customers only seem interested in hens eggs, with one regular customer who loves duck eggs.  I use up all the goose eggs in omelettes!

They make wonderful sponge cakes!

Yep, sell all of ours on the market stall £1.50 each if I have any left at the end of the day I sell them on to another trader for a quid and he sells them at another market for £1.50. Check the price of them in waitrose £1.50 is cheap as chips.

We sell them at 75p at our market. 
It helps to offset the cost of everything else we do

[Womble]

Wow, maybe I'm underpricing them at 'free' then!

TBH, I usually put most of ours in the incubator for just over a month, then throw them away, at least that's what I've done for the last two years.

True I'm sure, but I don't think I even know anybody who shops at Waitrose!

at the local store they are £4 per egg. sold at the local market for £3 per egg we sold ours for £1 each. problem was few people wanted them on a regular basis

[hughesy]

Don't under sell them. Remember they're very seasonal, not available in very many places and super eating as well.

The problem we have is getting to them before they get all dirty.  When you sell yours, do you have to wash them clean or are they clean when you collect them?

[hughesy]

A bit of both. Some clean, some need a wipe. I try to collect them early so the muck hasn't gone hard and it's fairly easy to wipe them off with a damp j cloth.

Are their night quarters quite room with plenty of space or just big enough to give them shelter and protection from foxes?
