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.

This is how it should be. Consolidating egg production is a bane on society. It might make the profit cheaper but it also greatly increases the opportunity for cross contamination to occur due to the distances they have to travel. I always buy locally sourced.
