And how many are in your family?
I just realized we go through 3 dozen a week, which is crazy to me. (Good thing I can get them for free from my parent's chickens!) But, that said, I SAH and love to bake or cook pretty much every everything we eat from scratch. I think that contributes to why we go through so many. I also follow the Bradley method diet with my pregnancies and eat 2 eggs a day.
Oh! And there are 3 of us in our family.

At least one dozen a week. On average, we use about 12-18 eggs a week. I buy eggs from Costco in an 18 pack or is it 24?

1.5 dozen per week for us. And I just started making these, so we might start going through even more soon!:

2-3 dozen/week. DH doesn't eat them much so it's mostly me and LO (21 mo). We used 6 today, 2 for him, 4 for me!

0? I don't really bake a lot or use eggs in cooking dinners. I eat eggs for breakfast maybe once every week or two. So we don't go through a lot at all.

A dozen every 2 weeks or so, but it varies a lot. I don't eat eggs on their own anymore, since they give me digestion problems.

Pre-pregnancy we went though about 1.5 dozen a week. I ate 2 eggs with an english muffin and bacon everyday after I had my LO...this was my breakfast for almost 2 years straight. Then I started making Mrs. Bee's steamed egg dish every morning which also uses 2 eggs. Then I got pregnant and can't stand the thought of eggs 
. So now we go through maybe a half dozen a week. LO gets a fried egg every other day or so

I eat eggs and veggies for breakfast every day. So, a lot.
Maybe 2 dozen a week between the three of us (LO loves eggs for breakfast, too).
Crap. I probably have high cholesterol....

It is just the two of us right now and it usually takes us between 10 days and two weeks to get through a dozen. Sometimes if it is taking us too long I will boil the remaining eggs and have hard-boiled eggs for snacks all week. And sometimes we just buy a half dozen to supplement what we already have.

1.5-2 dozen. Family of three: two adults and one ravenous 12 month old.

1/2 doz a week. I don't have time to make a big breakfast in the mornings except on weekends. I imagine we will go through more once LO eats them. We've only tried a couple times and she was not too impressed.

Prob around 2 dozen a week for 3 of us (2 adults & a 10month old). We cook everything from scratch and also DH has egg white omelettes on the weekends & they take a lot of eggs. We buy eggs in packs of 30 from the supermarket.

Between 1-2 dozen. Family of 4 but the baby only just started eating eggs, so my guess is that soon we will settle firmly on two dozen.
