(FILES) Hens for sale sit in their cage at Wabash Feed & Garden store in Houston, Texas, on February 10, 2025. A farm animal business in Houston sold 100 hens in four days, a number they usually reach in a month. With the price of eggs skyrocketing, several Americans prefer to get theirs at home. "In the last few weeks we've noticed a dramatic increase in demand for hens, people want to buy them because egg prices have gone up or eggs are simply not available. Our poultry sales have doubled or even tripled," says John Berry, 43, manager of Wabash. (Photo by Moisés ÁVILA / AFP) (Photo by MOISES AVILA/AFP via Getty Images)
