You've eventually got to pay the Piper.

"Fed Governor Philip Jefferson released a reply to the report, saying the current situation differs from previous inflation episodes. He noted that this Fed has more credibility as an inflation-fighter than some of its predecessors."

Went to the chicken and small animal auction today for the first time in a few years. Boy has it changed lots of non local people. Eggs selling for 35.00 a dozen and chickens were 75.00 a piece. I about shit myself
Ive heard that locally chicks are selling for $10, hens for $25-50, and roosters for $20-30. The fact that roosters are selling tells me that its a bunch of newbs blowing money.

Meanwhile the price of eggs is already coming back down o something reasonable (at least compared w/ everything else) so all these folks getting into raising them now aren't going to be rolling in the bucks like they hope

yep. We got chickens a couple years ago. I sold a few dozen eggs here lately just because there was a demand. Guess Ill go back to giving away a dozen now and again.

Yup, and they will be sadly mistaken that even at the inflated prices, they arent making money selling eggs. Our layers are older, and took the winter off... they started back with a vengeance, but by the time i have a surplus no-one will want to support local anymore.

Ya'll hush on the eggs. Right now our support their own feed and pay for our two dogs and two cats feed. I call that a win. We average 8 a day and usually keep a dozen or less for us a week.
