I have a million things running threw my head this morning! I love the idea of sitting out to the end of my mom's driveway and selling my eggs! They are going for $2 around here but, I think I am going to ask $2.50 or $2.25 a dozen. I also think I will try selling some of my peeps and pullets the same way. Selling my peeps for $2-$3 each and pullets for no less than $8. I saw on Craiglist that someone wanted $5 each for mutt roosters so I should have no problem getting $8 for my Pure BJGs.
I was also thinking of having a back sale when I sell my eggs. Just keeping it small like 4 or 5 loaves of banana bread at $5 each. So, I could sell 5 loaves of BB at $5 each that is $25 and 5 dozen eggs a week at $2.50 that would be another $12.50. So, nearly $40 a weekend....plus peeps and pullets. I think I will try it for a month when my chickens are laying good and see how it goes.
Now I remember why I did NOT want a dog and it has only been ONE night!!! The dog was shining and barking at 5:30 this morning! I was going to get up to shut my bedroom door so I could not hear it but when I rolled over it was already closed!! So, I yelled at him to be quiet....then 13 and 11 yo got up let him out of his cage and you could just hear them talking for like 15 minutes!!!!!! I got back up and yelled at them to put the dog away and go back to bed!! I am so NOT a morning person!! Can you tell?? Then first thing this morning, 9AM, DD woke up saying "Can we let the dog out?" about a million times!! Then all I heard was 4 kiddos (6 yo stayed the night at my mom's last night) saying the dogs name over and over and then running and racing threw the house!! Sigh!! By the time I got my breakfast and he was up in my face 20 times while I was trying to eat I had had enough and he is now back in his crate!!! Saturday, Saturday, Saturday....it is only two days away and then he goes back home!!! And I can have my nice calm house back again!!
