Cheapest eggs for my grocery store are $5.65.
And specialized varieties, such as organic and cage-free eggs, are even more expensive.
Near me those are cheaper
Yeah is this strange with slaughtering the food control and dismissing like all disease control measures etc?
Where are people getting these numbers? Eggs have been above $7 for months

Don't worry it'll certainty go back down
Meanwhile, my small backyard chicken flock (smallish coop with an enclosed and roofed run) eats the organic trash from our kitchen, and then they give me between 5-8 eggs per day. Literally, I picked up 7 eggs yesterday even though nights are around -10 degrees C. It’s a miracle.

Prices in Ireland for 12 eggs are €3.75 for free range or €2.70 for barn
How much for you to paint them to look like toy eggs and ship to the US?

USDA's puts them at $7.74/dozen based on futures and project to get to nearly $10 this year. Given eggs can often be loss leaders, actual prices might not match contract prices everywhere, but stores trying to bring in customers and increasing other prices to compensate means looking directly at consumer egg prices might be misleading.
