Fresh, local eggs have remained around the same price here. While more expensive than eggs from large producers in normal times, they are now often cheaper.

This is a great reminder of how important it is to support local farmers and small operations, which increase the resilience of the system as a whole.

someone is leaving money on the table

no reason not to hike up the prices: a. if everyone is doing it b. if the demand > supply

Because they're happy with the income they're making from it probably. Not everything has to make the absolute maximum amount of profit possible.
