Couple dollars more than that here, but I rarely eat eggs anyway.

Wonder how many kids are going to be hunting for plastic eggs this coming Easter.

I recently tried vegetarian egg substitute, very revolting.

You need to try it at least six times before your taste buds become accustomed to it.

I can't imagine eating shit 6 times to like anything, unless it alters perceptions reality.

I’ve never really come to terms with the phrase ‘it’s an acquired taste’. Why would I want to acquire a taste I don’t already have?

Are you also having shortages in your country as well?

We seem unaffected, our preferred eggs are about $2.50 USD per dozen.

Our egg prices are high, about $5.50/dozen. What was that first-day promise? Where is it now?

Quote:The Trump administration's secretary of agriculture, Brooke Rollins, suggested Americans keep chickens in their back yards in response to surging egg prices on Sunday during a Fox News appearance.

Newsweek contacted the Department of Agriculture for comment on Tuesday via email outside of regular office hours.

RE: Noteworthy News
Lets do some chicken math. A family of four, raising four chickens, at retail prices (out here)

Year 1 they will be out roughly $450 bucks for about 400 eggs. The value of 400 eggs is $148
Year 2 $450 1k $370
Year 3 $450 1k $370
Year 4 $650 1k $370 (flock replacement)
Repeats from 2.

$2000 out for $1258 in retail. You could buy 2k more eggs with the difference that you lost buying feed. Chickens are a scale, space, and verticality thing.
(even at scale it breaks even on the seventh year, conservatively)
I am the Infantry. I am my country’s strength in war, her deterrent in peace. I am the heart of the fight… wherever, whenever. I carry America’s faith and honor against her enemies. I am the Queen of Battle. I am what my country expects me to be, the best trained Soldier in the world. In the race for victory, I am swift, determined, and courageous, armed with a fierce will to win. Never will I fail my country’s trust. Always I fight on…through the foe, to the objective, to triumph overall. If necessary, I will fight to my death. By my steadfast courage, I have won more than 200 years of freedom. I yield not to weakness, to hunger, to cowardice, to fatigue, to superior odds, For I am mentally tough, physically strong, and morally straight. I forsake not, my country, my mission, my comrades, my sacred duty. I am relentless. I am always there, now and forever. I AM THE INFANTRY! FOLLOW ME!

What's the "1k" in your equation there? Eggs?
