Amusingly, the pasture raised eggs are now the same price as the regular eggs at Aldi.
I have a coworker who keeps about 250 chickens at her house and sells the brown eggs for $5 a dozen. Meanwhile, a dozen white eggs at Shop-Rite are $10.
her house?? She must live on a ranch or something
The eggs are pretty small.
Different coloured eggs are different prices in the US?
Yeah. Generally, brown is more expensive than white, organic is more expensive than non-organic, free-range is more expensive than caged etc. The current situation has rendered everything fucking expensive, though.
Hmm - here in England the colour of an egg doesn't make any difference to its price, or to its taste. But yeah, organic and free range usually cost more. Larger eggs cost more too. I've not checked the exchange rate but I'd say it costs about $6 for a dozen free range eggs.
I'd love to keep hens myself but it's not feasible. I have friends who live on a farm where the chickens just kind of wander about and I swear their eggs taste better than shop bought.
