All those eggs go to five different houses. I cook for 15-20 people per week. Most of the deviled eggs go in the kids' lunches so a lot of the farts are released at school.
HONESTLY………How many eggs do you/ your family eat monthly?

A lot.
The boy will eat 5 scrambled with turkey and cooked down spinach in a breakfast burrito, then he may have another after a lift.
$5.69 for a doz at Aldi this a.m and i could only get two. That will get me to Wednesday.

Only 2 of us (kids grown), easily 18-24/month. We buy the Costco 18 pack and supplement with liquid egg whites.
Omelets and scrambles on the weekends. Usually have 6 boiled eggs in the fridge for quick breakfast or protein snack.

Sub in some spicy hummus for the filling.
Pretty sure eggs themselves aren’t bad for cholesterol though. It’s mainly the foods high in saturated fat and the genetics you were born with that cause high cholesterol levels.
SIde note: Chickens are the only food we consume before they're born and after they die.
My wife and I on average probably go through a dozen eggs every single month. It’s ridiculous I tell ya!!!
Less than a dozen, which sucks. I can eat the hell out of them but the wife doesn't really like them and daughter HATES eggs. For some reason potatoes and eggs were both DOA but we have been able to work in some mashed potatoes ( if she uses it like a dipping sauce for carrots).
Egg salad sandwich, hard boiled, deviled is goat material, and yes I've drank several raw. The gross part is when the yoke breaks in your throat. Eggs and I have an interesting relationship, I worked at a chicken farm where they tried to make the perfect commercial egg strand. With that I have ate for free and watched a guy eat an egg salad sandwhich while grinding the half born eggs/chickens into a slurry to pour on compost. Good protein the egg.

The eggs you get at the store are not fertilized.
My wife and son eat a lot of hard boiled eggs, so we probably go through a dozen a week.
I’m glad we have laying hens. We do need to get a few more so I’m planning on buying a few from an Amish family next month. We will also get some chicks in the next week or so.
Probably a dozen a week give or take, for breakfast some days and hard boil a dozen as needed to have for a quick snack between work and working out or after for a quick protein fix with cheese stick. Like to put a hard boiled egg on my salad with grilled chicken as ways to use hard boiled eggs. Just picked up an 18 pack at Costco for $5.99, or $0.34 an egg.
How big is your coop? And has the savings on eggs offset the price of sheltering and feeding them yet?
We have a spot for a coop, but honestly, I don't know if they're worth the work.
I also don't know if I can afford to build a coop, atm.
The humans eat 0, the dogs used to eat a dozen a week but they don't get a choice in the matter if the grocery store doesn't have them
We have our coop in part of the barn so it’s pretty big. They are free range so they don’t need as much feed in the warmer months. I honestly haven’t done the math on if we’re saving money, I’m sure we are because we sell some, but it’s probably minimal. I don’t eat eggs but my family says our eggs taste better than store bought.
