Pecker Rot? You been going out with Betty Sue Rottencrotch again?
Naw, haven't thought about sex for a couple years now.....the federal government screws me enough already it's like being back with my first wife.
The primary reason for the egg shortage is manufactured, the largest layer in the country lost 6 million birds to the flu last year and they only replaced them with 2 million birds. Like everyone else they don’t want to keep prices low they want to find that fine line (kind of like OPEC) they are doing it with most everything.
i'm getting 16 eggs/day. good grief. I think it's time to thin the flock.
We're getting 6-7 and I'm thinking the same thing.
My wife gets roughly 2 dozen a day
The Quart size carton of Egg Beaters was $6.00-ish Plus this morning at Crest.
Due to Doc gripin' at me, I use 1 or 2 real eggs, and then a good splash of the Yellow (don't like the sight of the White) Egg Beaters

Nope. Eggs keep at room temp for a LONG time. Plus if need need to you can waterglass them (I think that's the right term) and they will be good for months and months. If it comes down to it that might be the only regular source of protein that is affordable. No sense in giving it away ...
i have kept unwashed eggs over winter in cartons and a refrigerator without a single loss. i have kept salt packed unwashed eggs for two years without any loss either. note that there is a degree of dehydration that occurs but the eggs are fine. i didn't test for nutrient loss. just spoilage.
