    Default What's with eggs at 4-5 bucks a doz.!


    Is it due to a bird flu/chicken shortage, cost of feed due to draught, general inflation of most food like milk at over $4/gal.??? Yet chicken thighs and legs can still be bought for $.99-$1.50 on sale.

    What gives?

    From what I read it is a combination. There have been 8 million less Laying Hens purchased for the 2023 season. Farmers can not break even selling eggs to retailers. I just paid over s
    $100 for 300 lbs of cheap laying pellets.
    The love for fishing is one of the best gifts you can pass along

    Those darn site rules prevent me from a full explanation. I’d scare the normals anyways.
    Maybe they will bite this one……
