EGGS: Avian flu outbreak causes the egg market to fluctuate

The effects of the avian flu outbreak are being felt here, even though no Pennsylvania flocks have been affected. A sign at Saladworks in Jennersville said due to the national egg shortage caused by the outbreak, eggs would temporarily be off the menu. And prices are rising at the grocery store. Thank goodness for my friend who raises hens; she gives me eggs and I give her cookies, vegetables, flowers, lunch at Hood's or the occasional muscle power to help with farm chores.
