[QUOTE="CHenry, post: 4293575, member: 6281"] Egg prices are not a total reflection of inflation. If your buying alot of scratch, sure. If they are grass feed or otherwise fed for free then no. Bird flu comes around ever year and thousands of birds are destroyed which causes a supply issue. I can't speak of the situation right now. My brother is a veterinarian and just retired from the USDA in November so I used to get Intel on this from him but no longer. It seemed to play out every years in one, two or many more states. Thus when thousands of birds are destroyed because of this infection, prices of eggs goes up because supply and demand. So does chicken meat prices. [/QUOTE]
