Egg price watch

Congratulations!

Seriously, though? I’ve had zero problems finding eggs and at no significant difference in price beyond standard inflation, I get that’s not normal, but it’s hard to relate…

It's a specialty organic store that doesn't use typical distributors. It's not where I do most of my shopping, but I drive by it on the way to and from the gym so its a go to for the two things I need or whatever.

In the regular stores around here there have always been eggs, but not necessarily the ones you want (e.g. XL are often missing).

Just now I was at Stop & Shop, the mass market store here, and the cheapest were 7.89 and cheapest XL were 8.09.

I think the low-ish price at Mom's Organic was a loss leader and/or apology for not having them for so long.

Weird. Our eggs at Aldi (usually the cheapest price) are like $6 a dozen. And sold out at Costco.

Chick to broiler = 6-9 weeks.

Chick to layer = 4-5 months

[LuFins Dad]

Yeah, but those are Jewish eggs. Probably full of nanobots that can be used for targeting assists for the space lasers.

Say, would Israel consider being the 51st of the United States?
Be sure to bring your eggs with you!

Same in the US. Talked to a friend in IL and they told me the same thing. Their Costco was out of eggs.

My Costco had eggs a week ago. But I'm so egg-rich from HEB, I didn't buy any. I could pretty much bathe in eggs if I wanted to. Feel sorry for those who can't. But let's take some personal responsibility, please. Your own life choices led you to not having eggs.

[LuFins Dad]

Bought a dozen last evening. Plenty in stock, but the price was 60¢ higher than 2 weeks ago.

I’d rather learn to code.

She’ll be approaching the HOA about a communal chicken pen next…

I’d have them if I lived where I could. The eggs are better and the meat of a pasture raised bird is a lot better.

[Jolly]

Yeah, but slaughtering and cleaning chickens is a nasty job. But...It's easier if you don't want the skin. Instead of scalding and plucking, you just skin and gut.

[Mik]

Take em to a processor.

[Jolly]

How do you know you're getting your chickens back?
