People who don't raise chickens may not realize this, but chickens lay eggs whether the household is particularly in the mood for egg-centric food or not.

We get 2-3 dozen eggs a week, which is a lot of eggs for 3 people.

We give them away, of course, but sometimes they add up.

@GeePawHill Funny you should mention that – a photo came up in my memories today of five dozen eggs in my fridge ten years ago, when I used to have chickens. Fortunately I found a community café that were only too happy to exchange a load of eggs for a couple of fried breakfasts!
