After a bird flu outbreak last year caused egg prices to skyrocket across the country, consumers are getting some relief.
After significant drops over the previous four weeks, the average price for a dozen large eggs May 5 in California was $1.68, versus a high of $7.37 in January and $2.35 a year prior, according to the U.S. Department of Agriculture.
An increase in supply was the primary reason for the price decline.
