Minnesota egg company believes egg prices will increase

Officials with Twin Cities-based Michael Foods say they expect egg prices to go up again after an outbreak of the bird flu among their flocks.

Parent company Post holdings has confirmed a third-party contracted egg-laying flock in Iowa tested positive for the bird flu.

Almost four-and-a-half million hens, or about 12 percent of Post’s egg supply, are housed at the Iowa facility.
