Egg Prices Down For Few Months In Manitoba
Poultry specialist Ross Cameron of the Manitoba Department of Agriculture and Conservation says egg prices will ease for several months with more grade A medium and small eggs on the market. Large eggs remain ample year round due to heavy fall production, better transport and storage. Pullet flocks start laying in November, eggs start small and grow to grade A large by midwinter. A Ready Reckoner price chart helps consumers compare grade A large with smaller grades.
