Summary
In February 2022, a Beaver Island household advertised fresh brown eggs from new chickens, reporting production of about 16 eggs per day and a price of $4 per dozen. The seller offered pickup on Paid Een Ogs Road or delivery to the library. A later buyer said they had purchased the last two dozen and found them good, providing limited corroboration of an actual sale.
Evidence limits
These are first-person seller and buyer accounts of one small household food operation. They document a local food transaction, not a formal farm, island- wide egg supply, production survey, or continuing business.

- The seller reported new chickens producing about 16 eggs per day, offered brown eggs at $4 per dozen, and gave a Paid Een Ogs Road location or library delivery option. A buyer replied that they had purchased the last two dozen and liked them. This documents one household-scale sale and a buyer confirmation, not island-wide production, a formal farm, or a complete sales record.forum · www.beaverislandforum.com · 17 · t017037
- A related notice repeated the reported production of about 16 eggs per day and sought regular customers at $4 per dozen; a prospective customer said they hoped to buy after moving to the island. It supports the seller’s continuity claim but does not establish later production or the prospective move.forum · www.beaverislandforum.com · 17 · t017038
