Biden killed the chickens.

Evil Biden! Biden bad!

yep, here in Illinois a guy killed 5000 fking chickens in 2024 after the elections. 5 fking thousand. Well what the fk you think that would do to the price of eggs?

Propaganda. I was just at the store. $10.00 dozen. GFY

“You must be buying it at the wrong place. ”That’s what I was told to me by the left when my state had high gas prices, so according to the left, that is your fault. Sorry you make bad choices while the rest of us are paying less.

You must be going to one of those stores that gouge their customers. Didn't Kamala fix that for you?

Don't be silly. Egg prices went up for a reason, and they will come back down in time when that reason no longer applies. The sitting president has nothing to do with egg prices. The democrats are just pointing out the hypocrisy of the MAGAs blaming Biden for the increased price but giving trump a pass. Many voted for that great orange blob because of the long list of things he promised to do on day one, including lowering the price of eggs. Obviously lies from your King don't matter to you.

Exactly, just as Biden did not have anything to do with the up turn of the economy in 2021, just as Biden had no effect on unemployment rapidly decreasing in 2021, just as Biden did not have anything to do with inflation, the same is for Trump.

The Republicans and the Democrats take credit for all the pluses and have excuses for the minuses, they have very little control. Tells us how dishonest our political parties are.

don't you know demofk play? if it's bad it's our problem if it's good they did it. So xiden's bad was on trump from four years ago and when it's still bad in their eyes today it's still Trump's problem. So technically, they believe did win in 2020. No other way to read it.

It, of course, raised the price. That is exactly what the FDA USDA and APHIS and every other health regulating agency called for

If not for all the tariffs, I would probably agree with you.

We need the tariffs to get back to even ground with the rest of the world.

Trump has nothing to do with it. You cannot blame him for Biden's failures.

 

[Admiral Rockwell Tory]

The President runs the USDA, xiden blundered the bird flu worse then the COVID pandemic, the only difference is a record of humans didn’t die, just chickens…spiking the price of eggs. Trump fixed it

Time fixed it.

 

[jc456]

Time fixed it.

stopped killing chickens did that. I also heard the administration had eggs flown in from Brazil to bring down prices. Don't know if it's true or not, but it was reported.

 

[chesswarsnow]

Sorry bout that,

1. Trump had, Italy and Turkey, and Brazil send in eggs!
2. That was Billiant!!!!
3. Now just stop killing the chickens!!!
4. Egg market will plummet.
5. We could subsidize the egg farmers, and have them lower the price to .29 a dozen.
6. I'm for it, lets do it!

Regards,

You need to remedy inequalities with reasoned incremental steps, so you don't destroy what you are trying to fix. trump is just slashing and burning.

Why would we give Trump a pass? He doesn’t need one.

He is fixing the mess Tater left behind.

Democrats Panic As Egg Prices Continue to Drop​

Democrats Should Panic As Egg Prices Continue to Drop

pjmedia.com

17 Mar 2025 ~~ By Matt Margolis

Remember when Democrats thought soaring egg prices would be the silver bullet to take down President Trump? Their plan just scrambled spectacularly. After hitting a wallet-busting peak of $8.17 per dozen in early March — the continuation of an upward trend from the Biden presidency — egg prices have plummeted below $4.

​

Despite this plunge in egg prices, the mainstream media is desperately trying to keep that information from reaching your breakfast table.
The New York Times also reported on the price of eggs last week, ignoring the sharp decline in prices by only citing February data. "Egg prices continued their upward climb in February despite some easing in overall inflation,” the paper reported, “further straining consumers seeking relief from rising prices in the grocery aisles."
Newsweek also reported on Monday that eggs are now being smuggled into the United States from Mexico due to high prices.
~Snip~
Let's crack open some truth here: The media is playing a shell game with the American people. They're deliberately focusing on outdated February comparisons while ignoring March's dramatic price decline. Even when they acknowledge the recent decline in prices, they are finding ways to dismiss it. Why? Because they can't bear to admit that egg prices are now lower than the average levels we saw at the start of Trump’s term because it undermines the one effective talking point Democrats thought they had.
But the Democrats' attempt to use egg prices as a political weapon has backfired spectacularly. Just like everything else in their playbook, this narrative has cracked under the weight of actual facts.
The mainstream media won't tell you the whole story about falling egg prices—or anything else. Want unfiltered truth about Biden's economic disaster and Trump's solutions?

Commentary:
The Democrat's premise: “We couldn’t get egg prices down therefore it can’t be done”..
It’s no great surprise that prices would drop again. After killing of the laying hens, it would be six or seven months before the replacement hens were old enough to lay, thus re-starting the egg supply.
Guess the Dems aren’t strutting about like roosters on this one. Nothing to crow about any longer.

We have to look at reality

Eggs priced at $4.95 in 2024 - $6.78 in 2025​

They even got up to $8.15 3 weeks ago.

They are now down to an average of $4.15 but one of the reasons that they are down is because:

Egg prices have recently fallen due to a combination of factors, including a slowdown in bird flu outbreaks and reduced consumer demand following high prices.

Here's a more detailed explanation:

Bird Flu Outbreaks Slowing:
The initial surge in egg prices was largely attributed to the severe impact of bird flu outbreaks on egg-laying hens, leading to a significant reduction in egg supply. As outbreaks have slowed, the nation's egg supply has begun to recover, leading to a decrease in wholesale prices.

Weaker Consumer Demand:
High egg prices led to a decline in consumer demand, as people became less willing to purchase eggs at the higher prices. This reduced demand has contributed to the drop in prices.

This is not due to Trump doing anything. Reduced demand is basically, people eating less eggs because of the high prices, which occurred under Trump's watch.

More Mucky Fake News

He says the price fall is not a real one because there are reasons to explain it that make the actual fall illusory.

That happens in the Mucky universe of Fake News

Cheap eggs, cheap gas, and peace in Ukraine would break the Democrats.

If they weren't already broken, that is.
