# Egg prices drop 70 percent

> Midwest large eggs now cost about $2.50 per dozen, down from more than $8 in March, after bird flu spread slowed in the region. Indiana poultry officials said it takes six months to a year for flocks to return to full laying, and about 400,000 South Dakota turkeys were lost in the past month.

## Why it matters

Lower egg prices reflect the supply recovery, but further bird losses in turkeys or layers could quickly lift prices again.
