At Aldi the cage free were $4 per dozen
Just saying. How much did other foods amaze you with their jumps for Thanksgiving and Christmas family dinners?
That’s 33 centavos per each.
If somebody is charging you a buck apiece, you may be in prison.
Not that there’s anything wrong with that.
Also they got math classes there, try some.
It average about that with my chickens these days. They still eat a lot but not many eggs.
Jumbo Eggs at Weis Markets (York, PA) are $5.99/doz, as of last Wednesday.
Not paying a dollar per egg by any means, but have seen the price of food at very middle class groceries jump far more than the government has so admitted.
9.99 for 18 eggs at Albertson’s (Nevada).
Publix last week - 5.99 a dozen.
$5.96 for a dozen at WallyWorld in the Albuquerque area. Almost $0.50/ a huevo.
My brother has Laying Hens he’s going to be RICH ,LOL
Large brown eggs were $4.99/doz. this week at Kroger. I agree the increase is shocking, but even at that they’re still a relatively good value. Assuming 2 per breakfast, that’s 6 breakfasts for $5. (How’s that for positive spin?)
I was at Home Depot today and pool chlorinating bleach is now $10/gal. In Oct it was $3.50.
“Laying Hens”?
Sounds like that best-little-**-in Texas.
Almost in Ca. 18 eggs on SALE $10.99
Regular bleach for your laundry used to be cheap, cheap now it is about $7.00 for a half gallon in Ca.
Local Walmart has regular eggs at $5.12/doz. That is just under 43-cents each.
They were about 6-cents each/75-cents per doz a year ago.
.36 apiece now.
I know pool chlorine pricing went asymptotic last summer. My daughter has a pool at her house, it was an expensive year for maintenance.
No, we grow our own.

When hubby and I bought some game hens and a rooster years ago, we didn’t realize how much we would appreciate those fresh eggs. I remember years ago, calling my husband at work (it was around 1998 or 99) and saying, “Guess what? I found two eggs in the barn!”. I never called him at work unless it was a major emergency, but I had to call him and let him know my discovery. Our first eggs! Now, we keep a small flock of hens and a couple of roosters, and give away eggs to family members when they are laying in abundance in the spring and the early summer.
I suspect we are going to find people ignoring zoning laws, etc and doing what they have to do in order to produce food on their property. Such as eggs!
