Texas A&M AgriLife poultry specialist Craig Coufal says retail egg prices could see a seasonal spike ahead of Easter as baking and dyeing demand rises. US egg prices averaged $1.55/doz in January 2019, down from $1.76 a year earlier, and shell egg disappearance is lower, indicating supply exceeds demand.
Egg supply is ample and prices are soft, but the short Easter demand window can lift wholesale prices temporarily. For feed buyers, stable feed costs and flock numbers mean no major shift in layer feed demand.
