Big prices for small chickens shift to the middle west
Frank Priebe explains that after years of small chickens commanding premiums, west and east coast poultry raisers overproduced. With high feed costs and fewer chicks, small 1 to 2 pound Leghorn cockerels are scarce, boosting prices 30 percent since the Fourth of July. A temporary market shift draws buyers to the middle west for small broilers, offering strong immediate prices for those sized birds.
