Business that will ensure your success.

Maybe you've been raising laying hens for your family and want to expand, or perhaps you're starting fresh with a new flock and already know you want to get into the business of selling eggs. Either way, raising chickens who produce farm-fresh eggs can be a fun and profitable venture. There are just a few things to consider when starting your own egg
Know Your Market
You'll need to make sure that a market for homegrown eggs exists in your area.
And you'll want to see what prices others are commanding per dozen. When looking at other local egg offerings, consider: are the chickens fed organic feed? Are they "pastured," where they spend all day out on grass, eating bugs and the growing tips of plants as well as chicken feed?
You'll want to determine where you will sell your eggs. Many states have exceptions for farmers selling eggs on a small scale. But if you want to go beyond that, you may need to set up a USDA-inspected egg washing facility. If looking locally, how much turnover does your local food co-op or grocery store have for eggs? Many places can't keep stock of good, local eggs, but in some towns or rural areas, there may be an oversupply.
