# Egg prices continue to climb - AgriLife Today

> Texas A&M AgriLife experts report that avian influenza outbreaks in commercial laying flocks have pushed U.S. egg prices to record highs. USDA data put the average wholesale price for large Grade A eggs at an all-time high of $6.14 per dozen on January 18. Analysts say they cannot yet predict when prices will stabilize.

## Why it matters
