The range for each type runs from the lowest to the highest figure across the sources. Prices for 50 g boxes are doubled to convert them to 100 g. Where a seller gives only one shared range for 50 g/100 g boxes, the top of the range is used for the 100 g box.
Why do bird's nest prices vary so much?
Two products both called “100 g of bird's nest” can differ in price by two or three times. Five main factors:
1. Strand ratio
Body strands cost more than nest feet and broken strands. At Uyên Nguyên: dried feather-removed nest 95% strands (4,050,000 ₫), refined Grade 1 about 70% strands (3,420,000 ₫), Grade 2 about 50% strands (3,150,000 ₫), prices for a 100 g box.
2. Cleanliness and cleaning labour
Raw nest is cheaper because feathers remain, but you must pick them out yourself and it loses weight: according to Yến sào Hồng Nhung (yensaohongnhung.vn), raw nest typically loses about 20–35%, leaving 65–80 g of clean nest per 100 g. Hand-picked feather-removed nest keeps the nest shape, so it takes the most labour. To see what cleaning at home involves, read how to clean raw bird's nest.
3. Source: swiftlet house or cave
Cave nest comes from natural island caves in small quantities, listed at 3.5–13.5 million ₫ per 100 g depending on grade. Uyên Nguyên sells house-farmed nest from swiftlet houses in Khánh Hòa, Phan Thiết and Vũng Tàu.
4. Reshaped nests or strands and fragments
Reshaped nests look attractive and suit gifting, so they cost more than loofah-style or tangled strands. Market: refined nest 2.68–5.7 million ₫, fragments 0.6–3.6 million ₫ per 100 g.
5. Actual weight of nest in the box
Compare prices on net weight: net weight counts grams of nest, not the desiccant sachet or the packaging (according to Yến sào Hồng Nhung (yensaohongnhung.vn)). Ask clearly whether “100 g” means the nest or the whole box.

Should an unusually low bird's nest price worry you?
A price well below the market level for the same type (see the market table above) is a reason to ask more questions before buying, but it is not proof of poor quality: prices also depend on the supply source, store costs and promotions. Check:
- ✓Is it the right type? Fragments, nest feet and raw nest with feathers are naturally cheaper than refined or feather-removed nests.
- ✓The strand ratio and net weight on the box: does 100 g mean the nest, or the whole box and desiccant sachet?
- ✓The source of the nest, the name of the preparation facility and a store address you can visit to see the product in person.
- ✓The seller's certificate showing the facility meets food safety conditions.
- ✓Test at home when you receive it: how it expands when soaked, its smell and the colour of the soaking water.
Frequently asked questions about bird's nest prices
How much does 100 g of bird's nest cost?
In November 2026, bird's nest prices range from about 2.8–4.5 million ₫ per 100 g for raw nest, 2.68–5.7 million ₫ for refined nest and 5.2–6.3 million ₫ for feather-removed nest, according to 6 public price sources. Some sellers list cave nest at up to 13.5 million ₫ per 100 g. At Yến Sào Uyên Nguyên (Ho Chi Minh City), a 100 g box costs 1,890,000 ₫ – 4,050,000 ₫, VAT included. Market prices come from sellers' public pages, viewed 8 November 2026.
Why do prices differ so much for the same 100 g of bird's nest?
Prices depend on the ratio of body strands to feet and fragments, how clean the nest is and the labour needed to clean it, the source (swiftlet house or cave), whether it is reshaped into a nest, and the actual weight of nest in the box (excluding packaging and the desiccant sachet). Raw nest is cheaper because feathers remain; you must pick them out yourself and it loses weight during cleaning.
How do feather-removed, refined and raw bird's nest differ in price?
At Uyên Nguyên, a 100 g box of dried feather-removed nest (95% strands) costs 4,050,000 ₫, refined Grade 1 (about 70% strands) 3,420,000 ₫, refined Grade 2 (about 50% strands) 3,150,000 ₫, raw nest 1,890,000 ₫, bird's nest feet 2,520,000 ₫. The higher the strand ratio and the cleaner the nest, the higher the price.
