Eggs, cheese, dairy, meat ..

56. Bird flu isn't affecting beef and pork production yet at least

Cattle can be infected, and show reduced milk output while sick, but it doesn't kill them, thankfully. And I haven't heard any reports that it's infecting hog operations.

But yeah, eggs, chicken meat and dairy prospects are looking more expensive in the coming months. Still plenty of it on the shelves here in the Midwest though. My flock of chickens hasn't laid an egg in weeks, but that's normal this time of year. when the days are short and dreary. I may install a light in their coop to boost egg laying. Thankfully I have a freezer full of venison, rabbit, wild turkey and squirrels. And after the New Year, it's gonna be time to break out the ice house and start bagging some crappies.
