The market is moving up with caution, demand for Free Range is picking up mostly through the special offers in the supermarkets; the comment is that 2 weeks ago you couldn’t give Free Range Medium away, this week you can’t get them, with Lion Code being extremely tight in supply.
The shadow of cheap eggs from the Ukraine is hovering over the EU again but we heard of a medium consignment from Spain at 58p possibly stuck in the Channel Tunnel or some immigrants for company?
The other comment is that if demand wasn’t so quiet prices would be really up, it is only 2 weeks till our Scottish schools go back and 2 weeks later in England, there is a good possibility that’s when demand will go up with eggs being such good value for money and all the good publicity and benefit from eggs.
