Had anyone else heard about this?
A lot of backyard chicken farmers claim that their hens stopped laying when they were using “Producer’s Pride” feed from tractor supply. I’ve seen a lot of baking how the manufacturer (Purina) just bought the largest egg producer in the US, and even some flimsy Epstein connections.
My 2 cents: Now maybe they cut standards for ingredients and/or storage for their store-brand line and crossed a threshold for the hens. That’s just capitalism. The system squeezed fuel prices and everything else so capital tries to scoff up the ‘opportunity’ of inflated egg prices and probably scrapes resources off their other lines to get it done. They don’t need to have some plan to make the chicken farmers bend the knee, they’re just trying to gouge everyone that’s already buying them at the store.
I’d like to find some good data to help defuse some Q-curious folks in my life, so please share if you’ve got it.
I found some claims that this person is intending to do some analysis, but I haven’t seen anything published yet. https://www.naturalsciencejournal.org/Index.html
Overall, not sure if there's any merit to it.
But so many of these 'conspiracy' people go with "deep state take my eggs, want to force me to eat BUGS!"
Whereas I feel like if its true at all, the 'conspiracy' will be something like, the corporation changed the protein source to something cheaper and legally didn't have to tell anyone, and so tried to hide it as much as possible, and it turns out that new protein sucks. Or something.
Which is to say, basically what you said.
Though, Q-curious people are hard to counter, because all it takes if for them to say "thats part of the coverup, man!", and there's no countering that logic if the person leans into it.
