In this episode, Grady and Mike catch up and talk about the weather and pen construction. We ponder high death losses. What’s acceptabe and why do you accept it? Grady recommends we pay attention to the chicken and learn about them. Do it thousands of times.
Then we talk about the egg shortage brought to light by none other than the venerable Whattaburger. The egg shortage we talk about is caused by Avian Influenza, which is different than the egg shortage most pastured producers know–the shortage where more and more customers come to consume delicuous pastured-raised eggs.
How else is the bird flu going to affect pastured? We talk prices, production, turkey, and more.
