I saw that. What I'm wondering is why DeeJay thinks the rise in the price of eggs hasn't hit Florida.
I'm wondering if they were always that high.

I do not agree as I am hearing from people who work at the MD Dept of Agriculture about how busy they are testing birds with the many reports they are getting of dying birds. The wild birds carry the bird flu everywhere sadly. All the infected bird has to do is poop when flying over a poultry farm and that poop gets tracked around and/or contaminates surrounding plants, worms, slugs, etc that the chicken/duck later eats and gets sick. A flock of just 100 wild birds can potentially spread a LOT of disease since birds tend to poop very frequently. Chickens poop on average every 30-45 minutes which is why they are used to play Chicken Sh_t Bingo LOL:

I do not doubt there is an avian flu. I question the testing, and the claims, of 10's of millions of chickens being infected, and thus needing destroyed. USDA-APHIS, like any governmental organization, is ripe for weaponization against the people.
If there are soooooo many wild birds/fowl supposedly carrying this bird flu and infecting chickens, why don't we see dead birds falling out of the sky, or laying dead in the yards of people's homes? Or dead ducks and geese floating dead in the water, or dead in farmers fields? And again, where is the proof? I, and I'm assuming others as well, do not want anecdotal evidence. I want prima facie evidence. Actual, verifiable, videos and pictures of the 50+ millions of chickens being destroyed/culled. And why is this happening all of a sudden now to such a high degree today, more so than in past years?

I have yet to see any dead birds, anywhere. I find if extremely funny in the link you provided, this, “Avian influenza does not affect poultry meat or egg products, which remain healthy and safe to eat and handle." So why kill the birds?
And what about the uncontrolled wild bird/fowl populations? These infected birds can just keep the cycle going by infecting more domesticated flocks. Avain flu can never be controlled.
And again, where are actual, verifiable, videos and pictures of the 50+ millions of chickens being destroyed/culled? You can provide links to official governmental narrative sites all day long. But without proof, they are meaningless.

Funny thing about cholesterol .... the body actually relies heavily on it for nearly everything to function properly. From keeping your brain operating at it fullest capacity, to maintaining the sheaths surrounding nerves, is also an antioxidant, strengthens the immune system, helps in hormone production, aides in proper digestion, essential to building cells, and so much more. And these buffoons want to eliminate it from our diets.

I think you can't go wrong ignoring what "they" say and living your life as suits you. 9 times out of 10 "they" are being paid to say the things they say, and none of it is based on real science.
Congress needs to investigate Big Egg.

FTC Urged to Crack Down on Egg Industry's 'Organized Theft'
Just before testifying at an open meeting of the FTC, Farm Action sent a letter to agency chair Lina Khan detailing its "concerns over apparent price gouging, price coordination, and other unfair or deceptive acts or practices by dominant producers of eggs such as Cal-Maine Foods, Rose Acre Farms, Versova Holdings, and Hillandale Farms, among others."
As Farm Action explained, "Egg prices more than doubled for consumers last year—going from $1.79 in December 2021 to $4.25 in December 2022 for a dozen large Grade A eggs."
Major egg producers and their allies have blamed surging prices on a "supply disruption" triggered by the deadliest outbreak of avian influenza in U.S. history, calling it "'act of God' type stuff," the letter notes.
Based on its analysis of publicly available industry data, however, Farm Action determined that while the avian flu outbreak killed roughly 43 million egg-laying hens nationwide in 2022, "its actual impact on the egg supply was minimal."
According to the letter:
Whenever the government blames someone else, you can be sure it's government's fault.

Congress couldn't honestly investigate who farted.
At least they have a suspect (Swalwell).Congress couldn't honestly investigate who farted.
