It's a supply chain issue. No one is buying his eggs because the grocery store packaging group is a bottle neck that can't handle too many extra eggs and the restaurant group he sells to doesn't need them. That said I don't have any issues getting affordable eggs right now.
Not sure if it is a dumb regulation that keeps things tied down or just dumb industry practices.
This has nothing to do with large vs small food producers, and everything to do with the fact that millions of eggs which normally get turned into hotel scrambled eggs and fast food egg sandwiches aren't being made since those places are doing far less business. Those eggs, no matter what kind of farm produces them, are sold in multi gallon bags of liquid egg that the vast majority of consumers have no use for, and the plants which make those bags can't just instantly turn around and churn out enough consumer cartons to meet the shifted demand.

Fast food are the only restaurants open, they've been going nuts all day every day since this started.
They still have to deal with the lack of commuters and stay at home orders keeping people at home, especially for breakfast
