Eggs

[TENNGRIZZ]

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 .

Got 16 today even with cold the cold weather.

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

No doubt some folks will not care as they even followed the governments' instructions and got their body D.N.A. alteration as the government lied and said that would prevent them from getting Covid . Even more horrific some even put their helpless children on the government D.N.A. alter . -- However some of us are purebloods and intend to remain that way . What has that got to do with the thread " EGGS " ? Watch this link and give us your opinion on the zombie chickens and chicken eggs the communist are planning on feeding people .

 

[SOAH]

I find it interesting that theres an egg "shortage" yet there was and is no shortage of chicken wings for the super bowl or at all in general that I know of. While they have been expensive since covid theres no warnings, sky is falling comments, etc. Seeing the video above, I did not bother to watch it actually, made me think of that.

I see SCARE TACTICS!!

60 Count box is now $29.78...out of stock though...all eggs about the same price though per egg....49.6cents an egg.

 

[DrHenley]

Publix doesn't have any eggs from big chicken producers now. All the eggs are from free range chickens on small farms.

Sounds like there were not hundreds of millions of chickens culled on small farms, only on the big commercial farms.

The big commercial farms have indoor chickens. Free range chickens spend time outdoors.

Can someone explain to me how indoor chickens caught the bird flu while outdoor chickens didn't??

I listened to that today, and he is wise to tell people that don't raise and butcher their own chickens to stock their freezer or can up chicken meat before they get injected.

Just talked with our son in Albuquerque, and eggs are $8 a dz there. Wow!
I think these chicken "cullers" have it all wrong. Burn the dead ones. The ones that live carry immunity to this, and should be left to breed more. But these are big farms we're talking about. Also, ask for a second test. Testing one chicken with one test then culling all of them is just dumb.

It's on purpose!!

Our son's friend just got 5 one year old Rhode Island Red Hens for eggs for his family. Smart.

Bought 6 baby chicks today. Cinnamon Queen. I had never tried this breed, but the sign said they are very productive layers and start laying earlier than most.

Also, the price of baby chicks has gone from $2.50 last year to $3.99 this year.

Excellent choice -- Cinnamon Queen chickens is what I raise . They indeed are good egg producers . good temperament " even the roosters " , They will lay brownish and mid to smaller size eggs . They if given a chance are also good forgers as I have a few that fly out of their run daily and scratch around for bugs and such . I really don't mind those that fly out of their pen as , I never liked ticks that much anyway .

 

[poltiregist]

Reportedly - some of the chicken hatcheries are having a problem as it is too cold in some areas for them to mail out chicks . They are supposedly marking down the price of their chicks if someone will go to the hatchery to pick them up .

I heard that today on youtube. It would be fun for a roadtrip to go thru a hatchery, don't have one near us. But I'll be hatching soon enough.

That wasn't a rhetorical question. I don't raise chickens (yet) and if someone who does raise chickens or knows more about how chickens are raised has an explanation I really would like to hear it.

A lot of hatcheries now days won't allow people to get too close to their chickens. Disease worries I guess. Some hatcheries have split their operations to multiple sites and in different states. That way their entire business won't get wiped out by government chicken killers.
I started looking in to buying an incubator. I'm thinking about a 55 egg capacity. I can find cheap Chinese made incubators for around $100. But a quality US made one is around $600. I'll probably order it within a couple of weeks.
