Has it also been affecting the price of chicken? I know that egg prices were a sticking point from the election so there’s a focus on that, but if it’s an avian flu that’s affecting chickens, would that also cause the price of any chicken product to go up? I feel like I haven’t heard anything around meat prices going up.
I think this is the answer. It can take a hen several months to start laying; meat chickens are typically harvested in six to twelve weeks.
