The price of eggs will go back up to $5 a dozen and the federal taxpayers will get to help bail their asses out again. All because the greedy huge factory egg producers insist on placing millions of birds on the same site.
One of the reasons I only buy small producer eggs. Pricier during normal times, but worth it.
Well, the State Ag people come in, contain it, and clean it all up. Which is no small feat. But, they can’t prevent the introduction of the virus, which comes from wild birds, and makes its way into the highly concentrated chicken operations, where it explodes.
How about a little PREVENTIoN? The virus is coming from something.
It’s coming from migratory birds.
What’s your suggestion? Build a giant net around Iowa?
As long as everyone understands this and understands there is nothing man/government can do about the problem...and not complain about the HIGH prices this virus brings with it, I am fine with it. I eat very little chicken and fewer eggs. I just don’t think I should have to further subsidize those farmers who are affected by it. Thanksgiving will be better off with spaghetti any way.
Well, every chicken would have to wear them correctly, so we’ll never know!
I'm lucky enough to have a couple guys at work that have their own chickens. Buy eggs from them...you can absolutely tell the difference between them and store bought.
