I have a friend in the poultry processing business. Was talking to them about the current avian flu outbreak. They are terrified. It's happening early in the year and has spread to wild birds meaning it cannot be contained. We are probably going to see millions of birds culled. His advice was buy a chest freezer and fill it with any poultry product you enjoy because it's going to be expensive or gone. Just a heads-up in case it does come to fruition. https://www.reuters.com/world/us/us...isconsin-egg-laying-chickens-2022-03-14/

There was a chicken shortage at the grocery store last month, and as soon as it rebounded a bit, I stocked up on thighs in my chest freezer, so I'm already there. I could always add more, though.

There's a shortage of effin' freezers around here.

Beef and pork high as heck.
Now a bird flu shows up at the same time...
There is something awful fishy about all of this.

This is probably fear mongering. Judging from my experiences with Tyson Corp products, no matter what the birds die of...and how long ago...they are going to be packaged and sold in some form anyway.
Well this is a fine pickle we're in, should'a listened to Joe McCarthy and George Orwell I guess.

The Ukraine invasion is also causing major food shortages. Think we're in for a really bumpy ride this year.
On a long enough timeline, the survival rate for everyone drops to zero.

First they raise hell about caged hens. Turn them out and expose them to wild birds carrying all kinds of disease.

Just picked up another chest freezer last night. Menards was closing a model out. 15 cu ft, normally $599, marked down to $499, and they have their 11% rebate going on.
Bought as a replacement for one that is 15+ years old. Plan on transferring all of our pork to the new one and then filling the old one with fish this spring.

Interesting point, I hadn't thought of that as a potentially contributing factor.

Avian flu has been hitting for years. Never noticed a chicken shortage before. Give the chickens masks and "vaccines" for goodness sakes... Fauci says they work.
