“Trump Agriculture Boss Says Cash-Strapped Americans Can Raise Their Own Chickens to Save on Eggs”
March 5, 2025
“Rollins offered the bizarre advice on Fox & Friends Weekend Saturday after anchor Rachel Campos-Duffy raised the possibility of an investment in small farms to boost egg production.
“I think the silver lining in all this is how do we, in our backyards — we’ve got chickens too in our backyard — how do we solve for something like this?’ Rollins said. “And people are sort of looking around thinking, “Wow, well, Maybe I can get a chicken in my backyard,’ and it’s awesome.”…”
It’s not weird or bizarre. It’s the cheapest way. This is good advice. If you grow the eggs yourself they are free. This will also increase eggs on the supply side thus reducing prices in stores. This is not hard to understand. The more people grow eggs the more there are to sell. The root of this problem is lack of eggs.
