WHY DID THE CHICKEN CROSS THE ROAD?

Submitted by Hardscrabble Farmer

To escape the never-ending stream of lies.

“So far, the bird flu tsunami wave across 27 states has infected 27 million chickens and turkeys, forcing farmers to “depopulate” or cull flocks to prevent spreading.”

Understand this: The Federal Government ordered the mass killing of tens of millions of chickens. They did not die of a bird flu, they were intentionally wiped out. Who knows if they were infected or not, there is no independent audit of the tests, there is simply a determination, not by those raising poultry, but by officials who work in office parks with salaries, benefits, vacation time and retirement packages. Not that CAFO poultry operations are the kind of place any reasonable human being who cares about animals or the food they feed their families would defend the practices that take place in these toxic waste dumps that go by the misnomer “farms”, but still…

The upcoming food shortages, price increases, and never-ending scare tactics are just beginning.

Prepare ye.

Bird Flu Outbreak “Above And Beyond Rate Of Spread” Observed In 2015, Warns Industry Expert

The bird flu outbreak has only been spreading around the US for two months, and some industry experts are warning the rate of spread could be worse than the devastating 2015 outbreak.

On Friday, the US Department of Agriculture (USDA) announced yet another state where the contagious strain of highly pathogenic avian influenza has been detected. Idaho is the 27th state where the virus has been found since February.

WaPo spoke to Gro Intelligence (ag data experts) senior research analyst Grady Ferguson who tracked the last outbreak in 2015, saying this one could be more disruptive to the poultry and egg markets.

Ferguson said that 66 days into the outbreak, 1.3% of all US chickens had been affected, and 6% of the US turkey flock. In 2015, he said, only .02% of total chickens were affected at this same time. The number rose to 2.5% of chickens infected at the outbreak’s peak, and more than 50 million were culled.

So far, the bird flu tsunami wave across 27 states has infected 27 million chickens and turkeys, forcing farmers to “depopulate” or cull flocks to prevent spreading.

“We are above and beyond the rate of spread, we saw in 2015. 

“Last time, 81 percent of the cases were in the fourth and fifth month, as things exploded. What chicken egg prices did last time affected the market for years. We are two months into the outbreak now, and the safety protocols haven’t worked. I don’t want to be a Chicken Little, but I think it’s going to be worse than last time,” he said.  

National egg prices are off the charts for this time of year. The average retail cost for a dozen large eggs across the country has jumped to nearly $3, up from $1.20 in early January.

Ferguson warned soaring egg prices “will make higher prices for all baked goods and a wide variety of processed foods from cupcakes to salad dressing. Restaurants will have a harder time justifying why they should give you a three-egg omelet for a dollar. And on the chicken meat side, the situation is also worse than it was last time.”

Besides sky-high egg prices, retail chicken breast prices per pound have surpassed a decade high.

The emerging poultry crisis will feed into record-high food inflation that will continue decimating households’ budgets.

Or as they say in Washington, 8.5% inflation. “National egg prices are off the charts for this time of year. The average retail cost for a dozen large eggs across the country has jumped to nearly $3, up from $1.20 in early January.”

“They are enjoying this and we are too demoralized to do anything about it. We are so demoralized that they have to organize and sponsor our protests like half assed trucker strikes.
Does anyone believe the trucks blocking cargo on the Mexican border belong to underpaid truckers who figured long stoppages into their budget by using up what meager savings they might have.

As long as they continue using the vaunted PCR testing in the diagnosis we should feel confident the culling is necessary.

Because the “bloom” has been washed off. Fresh eggs have a natural covering protecting them from air getting inside. The store eggs are already probably weeks old and the shells are porous potentially allowing contamination to enter. The reason that they have “expiration dates” . Glassing them would trap the contaminates inside the egg.

About 10 years ago, when I was living near Alma, Kansas, I read a book in the library about some early German pioneer farming families. They hard boiled their chicken eggs, peeled the eggs, then stored the eggs in a barrel of vinegar. Wonder how well that works.

Not sure if that was sarcasm or not, so I’ll just assume it wasn’t for the benefit of others who may not know.

But boiled eggs in vinegar is called pickled eggs. You can season it countless ways and they are delicious and will keep for a very long time. Just don’t expect them to taste anything like fresh eggs! haha

Not sarcasm. I eat eggs boiled because boiled eggs are easiest to prepare. Preserving eggs in vinegar interested me because it is easy and I am looking for ways to preserve food if we lose electricity for some time, thereby losing the ability to refrigerate food.

Also, it’s very important that if you buy eggs from a local farmer (at a Farmer’s market or directly) that you make sure the eggs have not been washed. Not any at all. Don’t even run water over them. If they have a lot of poop or debris on them, set them aside to eat fresh (after washing them off of course). The problem is that even running a little water over them and letting them dry will take off the “bloom” and as stated by Gmpatriot, the eggs will end up contaminated.

We need to start a serious movement that claims that politicians are spreading deadly toxins to everyone in society and therefore must be put to death before they infect anyone else. Wonder if that would have more or less support than murdering millions of chickens and turkeys all because the bullshit said so.

Why did the chicken cross the road? Because even it knew the PCR test is bullshit and wanted to get away.

They couldn’t make us dead with the shit shot and “flu” so they are going to unleash a fake bird virus to help starve us.

They really want us dead.

No eggs/chicken and fertilizer shipments being delayed by the major shareholders of the railroads, Vanguard and Blackrock. Planned Russian collusion, planned election steal, planned scamdemic, planned Ukranian war, planned oil & gas shortage and now a planned mass starvation. The “herd is being culled?

Additionally this is affecting poultry fertilized deliveries in MD Im told. Many farms have switched over due to lack of commercial fertilizer availability. Looking more and more like a govco manipulated conspiracy IMO.
