It's just another coincidence, Graeystone. We've had bird flu outbreaks where they've killed millions of chickens as well as fires in hen houses killing countless chickens.
Thus, we have an egg shortage. Also, they have changed the feed for hens so they stop laying eggs. When the feed is changed back to regular feed, they magically start producing eggs again.
Sounds like somebody doesn't want eggs in our diet. Coincidences!?
