[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]What about shell thickness? When I buy farmers market eggs the shells are really thin. Is that better?[/quote] Chicken lady again - No, it's not better, it's actually bad - that is a sign the bird isn't getting enough calcium in their diet (see my free-choice oyster shell comment above). I stopped selling at farmers markets - a lot of those vendors aren't really farmers, they are buying eggs from commercial facilities or warehouses, repackaging, and reselling, banking on the fact that most people think they are buying from a small producer - the Amish are one of the biggest offenders of this practice. Between booth rent, insurance, time, and now the pandemic, I stopped doing farmers markets and now do on-farm pickup for local clients, in addition to a weekly delivery of eggs into the city to a client list built from my market days. I also supply a few local bakeries and chefs with both chicken and duck eggs. [/quote]
