According to CNBC, wholesale egg prices have plunged over 40% since February. The decline follows easing bird flu outbreaks and weaker consumer demand, helping supply recover. Retail prices remain high, with consumers paying an average of over $5.00 per dozen in February. Consumers have been buying fewer eggs due to high prices and grocery store restrictions, easing supply shortfalls. Experts say it is unclear how quickly retail prices will follow wholesale declines.
