Radical HSUS Nanny State PING!
So the lady who brings eggs to me at church for free will suddenly stop?
I’m surprised this hasn’t been highlighted on FR already. Egg prices have doubled in the last few weeks!
Good: more market for other states, normal, intelligent states.
Wish someone could come up with a way to hit these people economically. I have always felt that our local Humane Society has done a good job,but didn’t realize that HSUS was such a bunch of troublemakers.
Aren’t most eggs coming from states other than Kalipornia... like Arkansas
bump
beef has gone up a lot too
Haven’t bought eggs in the grocery for nearly a year. Nothing like fresh, pastured eggs from your friend’s chickens.
This is ridiculous though. Gotta love the govt /s
This is exactly why we have a Commerce Clause to prevent a single state from blocking the America-wide free trade zone between all 50 states. Any affected citizen of a state other than California has standing.
If a guy who grew wheat for his own consumption is “in commerce” certainly a ton of state and local regulations must be.

Beef won’t come back down. The environazis and US government are trying to discourage its production, and it is a premium product in a world market exposed to a weak dollar.
beef herds were reduced and cows take a while to be born and grow.
Uhh, no way! My health nut sister and law tried to trick us the other night by making what turned out to be some type of veggie burgers. She told us they were beef. No they we not! Terrible tasting. Threw them in the trash and had an all beef corn dog for dinner instead.
I guess I picked a good time to acquire 14 laying hens last summer. The great aspect is that chickens are basically vultures- they eat everything. That means that every table scrap, stale leftover, venison trimming, Halloween pumpkin, etc gets turned into fresh eggs (and great fertilizer for the garden)
And the push to force us all to become vegans continues. And that is eggsactly what this is all about.
” “The words ‘humane society’ may appear on its letterhead, but HSUS is not affiliated with your local animal shelter. “
I find that this is not well known. This group should be charged with fraud.
I got mine! A small flock gives us 6 eggs a day. If things get bad, I can take those eggs and place them in my incubator and have some chicks in three weeks.
But then, lots of people can’t do that. Sad.
You have no idea what the HSUS agenda is...............
Why is there an egg shortage?
I have a coop and will make a runbox late winter. If I coop 3-4 pullets, I should turn over a sustainable 3 eggs a day by summer.
