Egg Prices Take Sharp Plunge as Americans Watch Costs Trend Downward
Breitbart ^ | 03/29/2025 | Amy Furr

The price of eggs has taken a sharp plunge as Americans have watched the cost of the grocery staple shift downward since mid-February, Axios reported Friday.

The drop in prices comes as the nation has been grappling with a bird flu outbreak that has affected egg prices and farmers, per Breitbart News.

According to the Axios report, “The average wholesale price of a dozen eggs was $3 Friday, down 8% from $3.27 on March 21, according to U.S. Department of Agriculture data released Friday.”

Doesn’t California law require that all egg-laying hens have personal groomers?

The Obama-Hillary era Democrats have hurt so many people, in so many ways. Obama would be happy to see prices go up, savings become worthless, and America brought to its knees - in the classic Cloward-Piven manner. In Hillary's case it's driven by her ego, sociopathy, and daddy issues. In Obama's case it's driven by his beneath the surface seething disdain for traditional America.

Sounds about right. Every hen gets an emotional support human.

Over 150 million layers were killed off because of bird flu. It takes a while to hatch chicks and replace the flocks.

California egg prices are skewed by the fact that retarded California voters passed a law mandating happy childhoods and ample room for activities for all chickens, reducing the amount of chickens that a chicken ranch can maintain.

And they just did the same for hogs. $30 packs of bacon, here we come!

Thanks, retarded California voters.
