More people are raising their own backyard chickens as egg prices continue to soar. Data from the U.S. Bureau of Labor Statistics show eggs are 70% more expensive than they were a year ago.
Data from the U.S. Bureau of Labor Statistics show eggs are 70% more expensive than they were a year ago.“With eggs specifically, you know there’s not necessarily one specific thing that you can point to say that this is definitely the reason why eggs are more expensive,” said Michael Snipes, Associate Professor of Instructor in Economics at USF.
As egg prices continue to soar, the cost of a carton has caused more people to consider raising chickens themselves.“I’ll be honest with you, I didn’t even really understand how much the price of eggs had gone up because we haven’t purchased them. I just pass it at the grocery store aisle,” said added.
“Interestingly enough, I didn’t really know what egg prices were because we were eating our chickens’ eggs,” said Taylor.“I wound up putting eggs online for free for people to come pick up and had such an abundance of people calling. Come to find out that very next morning, eggs were like five, six bucks a dozen. I had no clue,” said Jordan.
