Eggstreme Farming Egg Sizes & Prices: What Every Tray Sells For
Every money question in this game reduces to “what is an egg worth?” — and the answer has more layers than it looks. Here’s everything the sell screen, the market and launch-week footage tell us.
The four egg sizes
| Size | Laid by (confirmed) | Vending value (white egg, level 5) |
|---|---|---|
| Small | Small-size layers; small trays exist per species | $0.56 |
| Medium | White chicken | $0.75 |
| Large | Gray chicken (white), black & white chicken (brown), brown duck | $0.94 |
| Golden | Any species, rarely | ≈ $10 each (see golden eggs) |
The market card for each animal shows an Egg Size icon — a half-filled egg for medium, a fully filled one for large — plus eggs-per-hour, so you can read production quality straight off the animal card before buying.
White chicken egg: the exact official numbers
Per-egg values from the official sell screen; golden eggs on their own scale.
The official launch screenshot of the sell machine shows a mixed tray being sold:
| White chicken egg | Count | Market value |
|---|---|---|
| Small | 0 | $0.56 |
| Medium | 16 | $0.75 |
| Large | 14 | $0.94 |
| Total | 30 | $25.13 |
The math checks out (16 × $0.75 + 14 × $0.94 ≈ $25.16, rounded down per line). Two practical lessons fall out of this one screen:
-
One tray mixes sizes. A 30-slot tray from a mixed pen holds whatever the birds laid. Size, not count, sets the payout.
-
The confirm screen is your price checker. You see the full breakdown before selling — if a total looks low, you’re looking at a small-heavy tray.
Prices move. Plan around it.
Launch-week footage and the official screenshots disagree on exact values in an interesting way: streams at level 8–15 sold 30-medium trays for $30 ($1.00/egg) and all-large brown trays for $37.50–$45 ($1.25–$1.50/egg), while the level-5 official screen reads 25–35% lower. The most consistent explanation is that market value rises with player level — the game visibly rewards progression — but that’s inference across sources, not a confirmed mechanic.
What stays true at every price point:
-
Large > medium > small, always, by a wide margin.
-
Brown-egg trays out-earn white-egg trays of the same size — the $45 all-large brown tray is the best full-tray payout documented in launch week.
-
Duck eggs price into their own tables (duck trays sold for ~$16 in demo footage on small trays) and goose eggs — pale green in the coop — get their own values too. Per-size duck and goose pricing is still to be confirmed.
Which eggs to chase
-
Early (white license): you don’t have a choice — sell whites, upgrade birds when a gray chicken is affordable.
-
Mid (brown license): all-large brown trays are the strongest documented income in the launch build. This is the moneymaker tier.
-
Blue / duck / goose: novelty and progression value; blue eggs sell but per-egg pricing hasn’t been documented precisely yet.
Selling mechanics that affect your payout
-
Partial trays sell. Drop a half-full tray in and you get paid for what’s inside. (The demo required full trays — the full release relaxed this.)
-
Egg crates let you sell many trays at once for a flat $3.50 that’s consumed on sale — worth it at four-plus trays, wasteful below that. See egg trays & crates.
-
There’s no price negotiation or timing game. The machine pays what it says, so “when to sell” only matters for your own schedule, not the price.
Quick reference: observed sale totals
| Sale observed | Stage | Total |
|---|---|---|
| 6 medium white | Day 1 | $6 |
| 12 medium white | Day 2 | $12 |
| 30 mixed white (16m/14l) | Official screen, lvl 5 | $25.13 |
| 30 all-large brown | Mid-week | $37.50–$45 |
| Golden egg (single) | Early | $10 |
Use the upper table for planning, the machine for truth — and if your totals suddenly jump, it’s probably your player level, not a glitch.
