King explained that the company discovered that eggs fertilized by this specific type of rooster hatch less often, limiting the company’s supply just as nationwide demand for chicken is sky high. He added that the company is working to replace the rooster by the fall, but there could be a lingering supply hit that carries over into next year.

There are a variety of other factors also holding back chicken supply, according to Gary Mickelson, a spokesperson for Tyson. He said the winter storm that slammed Texas earlier this year as well as “worker absenteeism” and a surge in demand are also hurting supply.

Worker absenteeism is a gentle way of putting it

At least we have about 10 million feral hogs in Texas, so we shouldn't starve.

Its because everyone in the last year has been taking out wings and faster food chicken like crazy

All these companies are making some of their highest profits ever

quote:

Pilgrim’s Pride Corp. , the second-largest U.S. chicken company by sales, last week reported $100 million in quarterly profit, a nearly 50% increase on year and surpassing expectations. Analysts surveyed by FactSet also anticipate strong profits for Tyson Foods Inc. and Sanderson Farms Inc. when they report quarterly results over the next several weeks.

Boneless skinless chicken breast, the poultry industry’s flagship product, last year averaged around $1 a pound, according to Urner Barry. Now boneless chicken breast is trading at $2.04 a pound, the firm said.
