   Hard to say.. High prices would cut down the number of eggs farmers   
   could sell so I'd wonder at the 'advantage' if there wasn't an actual   
   serious shortage...   
      
   Maybe it only took a few months for them to replace those chickens with   
   young ones finally old enough to lay eggs. If you have the same barriers   
   from state to state there that we have here, maybe the prices went crazy   
   in a few states that got hit hard and not so much in others?   
      
   I remember the news here at that time though where they said that   
   the prices down there were going way up but they said that it wouldn't   
   affect us here. Could be several possible reasons for that..
