Did he say he'd bring the prices down? And if he did, did the prices still go up? And if both is true, is he a lying bastard or a stupid fool? Both?

People need to start putting trump "I did this" stickers on everything like the magats were on gas pumps.

Nobody is mentioning this when talking about raising fowl. I've had chickens and the primary reason I'm not doing that now is because I don't want primary contact with h5n1. I don't even know if testing is available and if it is imagine it isn't cheap. Even if I made a fully enclosed pen so wild birds can't get to the food or water I'd still worry. And I want my animals to free roam.

Your maths is wrong first one should be 12/8.75 = $1.37 per egg

[rbwells@lemmy.world]

We are "uptown" for lack of a better description, not the more expensive part but quite close to downtown and do have a yard, our neighbors keep chickens and it's protected inside the city, you are allowed to raise them and the feral ones are also protected by law, you can't just take them and make Coq au Vin.

It's both.

Voila is a delivery service, not sure why they decided to pick that out of literally everywhere in the country

They are $3.60 a dozen at Costco ($2.50 USD) last time I was there

Kinda irrelevant, but get fucked Eggslut. Worst place to work for, owners are a bunch of liars and have terrible management practices. This is absolutely killing them and I love that for them.

Lots almost like the inhumane, cramped, living conditions we permit a lot of our agriculture industry to have for animals is biting us in the ass.

And before dipshits come in about how that doesn't apply to cage free chickens, etc. Of course that shit still affects overall product prices. One of the businesses along the line between the farm with the chickens and your grocery store aisle is going to raise the price anyway to gouge a little more profit from the system when they have the chance.

Meanwhile my local Costco in AZ had no eggs at all 4 days ago.

[frickineh@lemmy.world]

Yes, but then you have to live in central Wyoming, which is a trade off that's only worth it for some people

I hope Just Egg gains some new customers from all this. Really good stuff!

[nurse_robot@lemmy.world]

$12 USD to CAD is over $17, what're you talking about

[remembertheapollo_@lemmy.world]

Yeah, these are specialty farm eggs, cage free, and brown. They’re also stacked in with the organic eggs. They probably command a markup without the price increases from bird flu. This is also probably some trendier grocery store OP is shopping at.

Our “fancy” grocery store has a dozen cage free large brown eggs for $5.49, so either this is a local issue in Denver or OP is posting some BS engagement bait.

Just snapped this pic from our store’s online shopping app.

You are both posting anecdotes, essentially.

I'm calling it Trump Flu, because why not.

I used to buy those eggs at the bottom of the picture. They come with a newsletter inside about how the chickens are doing.

The cheap eggs now cost what those eggs used to cost.
