Free. The Targets near me just brought in fresh produce and meats. I'm trying to figure out what they got rid off to gain the considerable floor space devoted to their expanded grocery department. But nevertheless, they sent out a coupon to all Target card holders for a free dozen eggs at the new and improved Target Grocery department. |

I pay $2.00 a dozen when I get them from my girlfriend's daughter's farm. They are fresh picked that same day. I get them when her hens are laying. There's a big difference between store bought eggs and fresh farm eggs. The yolks are really dark yellow and taste better then store bought. Lucille |

High prices are likely due to the bird flu, or that would be the excuse given.

For a while it was the cost of fuel and the high cost of feed because so much grain was being used to produce bio fuels. Bird flu would have a drastic effect on supply, driving prices up. Give the farms a few days for a thorough cleaning, the hatcheries would turn out a new crop of birds in three weeks and then give them 5-6 months to start producing. |

I buy the peewees anytime they're 49¢/doz or less... sometimes they're 39¢/doz. There are several huge egg farms in the northern Catskills... and I'd say about 1/3 of the people who live here raise chickens for eggs... a new family just bought a house down the road and I already saw that they have a chicken cook, there were two chickens on their front steps. Somehow chickens know to stay out of the road... all those jokes about why do chicken cross the road are nonsense, chickens don't cross roads... my neighor directly across the road raises chickens, they walk all over his front yard right up to the road on his side but I've never seen any cross over to this side. Now I can't say the same about dumb guinea hens, they are run over all the time. |

I think egglands best eggs taste odd. Large eggs are 2.99/doz here too.
