My contractor thought it was just more price gouging, and was horrified to learn that the bird flu was actually a valid reason.
I have 36 Grade A organic eggs and I'm in the market for a 1,500 sq. ft. house. Three bedrooms and two baths is fine. No lowballers now, I know what I have here. >

I will trade you my brand new Tushy bidet, still in box! >


The USDA shows the current price of a dozen large eggs in California cost about $6.72,

Never thought it would happen , but eggs in Canada are cheaper than the US. The eggs here are about $3.70 a dozen which works out to $2.76 USD >

I just bought eggs at Safeway yesterday, which tends to be a bit more expensive than average, and the most expensive eggs I saw were a little over $5 for organic/free range. I feel like these stories always pull prices from like, fancy parts of Santa Monica and San Francisco and say "this is what things cost in California!1" >

It’s all relative really. I live in Upstate NY and went to my Hannaford and an 18 pack of eggs was 8.50. If I go to the Trade Joe’s nearby though a dozen eggs costs me like 3.50. 
I have no idea what is going on. >

Same! At the Shoprite in Kingston, NY (Hudson Valley) last night- had to buy a half dozen for ~$4 as all the dozen cartons were $7+. 
I’m talking store brand, not even the good stuff I wish I could buy. 
My husband and I are considering joining a farmshare or scouring the backroads near our house to find the cheapest farm stands. We’d be buying our own chickens and selling eggs ourselves if we didn’t have a baby on the way haha. >

You could probably make more from the baby anyway. -Johnathan Swift >

Attribution instead of taking credit, how modest. >

It's fun to propose 'new' ideas. >

didn't realize bird flu wouldn't make the news. i only heard of the reasons behind the egg shortage from reddit
