      I always wondered if selling eggs to your neighbors violates some us laws

        Likely not. There’s some weird agricultural laws because of the great depression. You can mail raw vegetables through the USPS as long as they are addressed and have correct postage, for example.

          If you sharpie an address on a coconut and put a stamp on it, the USPS will deliver it. They’d rather you didn’t make a habit of it but they’ll do it.

      Yeah it’s a surprisingly big trend here. And the people I know with chickens are suburban families. They are not on farms and they do not have a ton of other pets. Just a dog or cat.
