Y'all I have too many eggs! My hens produced this many in the time frame of 2 weeks.

We've also gave away like 3 dozen eggs too
(I only have like 30 hens)
 
There are many ways to deal with extra eggs.
  • Sell/give them away (sounds like you are already doing this)
  • Hard-boiled eggs are an exceptionally nutritious treat. It has all the nutrients to grow a chicken from a few cells to a baby chick. I peel and crush mine and put them out in a couple of bowls. The girls go nuts for them. Don't do this all the time, but it is an excellent treat.
  • If you have dogs (maybe cats?), then eggs can be a very nutritious part of their diet.
  • Chickens stop or greatly reduce laying eggs in winter. After my first winter, I figured it was crazy to get store-bought eggs when I produced better quality ones. There are multiple ways to preserve eggs. Here is my favorite: water glassing.
