A bird-flu outbreak at a Rose Acre Farms egg facility in Clinton County, Illinois, led to the culling of 934,600 birds and remains the largest active US outbreak. The USDA confirmed the outbreak on October 19; the affected flock represents less than 0.5% of the US table-egg laying flock, while holiday demand is approaching.
The cull removes egg-laying capacity as seasonal demand rises, potentially tightening US egg availability and supporting prices, though the affected flock is a small share of national capacity.
