Eggs

I stand corrected Ammo Seek PMC 223 is 25 cents per round eggs are 45 cents apiece in Oklahoma! The DNC was so worried about food insecurity they deliberately created food insecurity for profit of course.

Well killing off chickens will do this to egg prices. They need to stop killing chickens.

I paid $6.61 a dozen yesterday, only carton I've bought all winter. My hens drastically slow down/stop laying every winter which is natural. I don't eat many eggs anyway. Dad gets the few they lay.

They'll start laying again soon, only have 5 hens and they are older. 3 eggs a day is normal.

My town has an ordinance against having chickens. Plus, with going upstate I'd need to find a chicken sitter, so I'm stuck purchasing them. Just spent $7.49 for an 18 count at Lidl. They limit you to two cartons (any count). The Stop and Shop had a 12 count for $11.40.

Most of our hens slow down laying in winter, but we also have several hens that do lay all winter. We get more eggs than we can use so we give a lot of eggs away. We have another dozen laying chick's on order, plus 25 meat chick's for June delivery. It should be warm enough by then that they'll do good in the brooder house.

Back last spring , I got the message from an unseen force . " Get more chickens . " - Now I know why I received that message . - So I had to get on a waiting list to get the breed I wanted . waiting period was at least 4 months but I would have to go through my records for an exact waiting period . Yep my instructions were get a chicken variety that will lay when most other chickens will not . I drove around a hundred miles to a hatchery as my pull was too strong to trust them to arrive safely through the postal service . -- Results I have lots of eggs even now during winter . I have waterglassed several jugs of eggs in case they should stop next winter .

We got 17 yesterday, 11 today. But I was shocked when I looked at Aldi today....last Sunday they were like $4.29 a dz I think, today $5.69. For the midwest cheapest eggs, that's crazy. Actually, shoppers were standing there discussing how crazy. Oh, and limit one dozen. It's been alot of years since I've bought eggs.

Usually when it's market season we sell all our eggs and I buy cheap ones at Aldi to do my baking with, but this year I won't. We will just sell less eggs. AND we are getting more chickens
A few we have a really old and need to go into the freezer too
