Wow, went to our local grocery store for eggs the other day and a dozen eggs was $3.19. A couple of weeks ago, they were $1.69.
Yesterday, Sam's Club had skinless/boneless chicken breast for $2.99#. I think it was under $2.00# last time I bought any.
Whole chickens at Costco were $1.49# yesterday, Sam's Club was $1.18#, I bought a few at Sam's.
What are prices where you are?
PS, we are getting our eggs from a local producer for $2.50/doz.

The Hutterite Colony had to kill off their chickens and turkey populations here just eating for some joker from the State to show up here now.
Was born in a Big City Will die in the Country OK with that!

My kids and grandkids were here yesterday. We had a early Easter dinner. I put a ham in the smoker.
Daughter brought me 18 cartons of 18 eggs. So far their chickens, turkeys, ducks, geese and peacocks are healthy.

I buy my eggs now from the Amish folks. $2,00 a dozen and their extra large eggs.
Much cheaper than when I had a dozen hens and feeding and taking care was a pain in winter especially.

I will have to check the store but we have been selling then for $3.00 pre dozen. Feed keeps going up so our price may also. Last year we sold chickens for $4.50 per lb. For whole chickens. Cornish x keep on pasture in tractors moved daily. You must live near a city

Cornish x keep on pasture in tractors moved daily. You must live near a city Just need to tap into the correct markets. But yes within 35min of Louisville. But it was the same at our old place 1 hr from a town of 115k. I can rase them but I'm not going to do it for nothing. Honestly at those prices on the eggs I'm not making much. I may loose money on the eggs of you figure not laying in the winter and time tell they start laying.
