What egg shortage?

Poor chickens, made to churn out eggs then when finished end up on a serving plate.

We don't eat our laid-out chickens, too tough after a few years.

There are certain members of the neighborhood who prefer the older ones, and will buy them from us. If only I could be certain of which ones were no longer laying . . .

Thanks for letting me know. Here's another one from Kroger to make up for the duplication. Pretty sure it's not in here but I didn't check.

No eggs at Costco today...

Has anyone seen the record profits and subsequent investigation into the largest egg producers?

So true, but it's steady over the pond with egg prices remaining stable.

If it gets worse maybe importing from our side of the pond sometime can be an alternative

That would be lovely, actually. Unadulterated eggs.
