Typically as we move into summer, demand for eggs soften, as people shift to consuming more meat and grilling outdoors,&#8221; Brett House, an economics professor at Columbia Business School, told CBS MoneyWatch. &#8220;People aren&#8217;t making heavy breakfasts, so we don&#8217;t see demand for eggs being as strong as it typically is during the winter months.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>While egg prices have declined for two consecutive months, down from $6.23 a dozen in March, they remain elevated compared with 12 months ago. In May 2024, a dozen eggs cost $2.70.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>David Ortega, a food economics professor at Michigan State University, told CBS MoneyWatch that avian flu containment has been responsible for most of the decrease in the average price of eggs.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;This is primarily due to a reduction in the number of commercial facilities that have been impacted by the bird flu,&#8221; he said. &#8220;A lot of bird flu activity in the beginning of the year led to a significant surge in egg prices, but those impacts have really lessened over the past couple of months.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>Wholesale egg prices began to decrease in March, according to Ortega, and the price drops are now starting to show up at the retail level.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;There&#8217;s a bit of a lag before they reach consumers at the grocery store,&#8221; he said.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>The bird flu outbreak, which began in the spring of 2022, is not yet entirely contained and continues to impact the industry, he cautioned. &#8220;It&#8217;s still very much an issue,&#8221; Ortega said.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>A May outbreak at an Arizona layer farm affected nearly 1.4 million birds, according to <a href=\"https:\/\/www.cdc.gov\/bird-flu\/situation-summary\/data-map-commercial.html\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\">data<\/a> from the U.S. Department of Agriculture.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>Consumer Price Index data <span class=\"link\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.cbsnews.com\/news\/price-tracker\/\" target=\"_blank\" data-invalid-url-rewritten-http=\"\">shows<\/a><\/span> that while overall food costs rose slightly in May, egg prices dropped.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;But egg prices are still substantially higher than they were 12 months ago, even after two months of decreases,&#8221; House said.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>    <!-- data-recirc-source=\"queryly\" --><\/p>\n<aside class=\"component list recirculation component--type-recirculation \">\n        <\/aside>\n<p>    <!-- tags --><\/p>\n<div class=\"content-author\">\n      <a href=\"https:\/\/www.cbsnews.com\/team\/megan-cerullo\/\" class=\"content-author__name\" data-invalid-url-rewritten-http=\"\">Megan  Cerullo<\/a><\/p>\n<div class=\"content-author__bio\">\n<div class=\"content-author__full-information\">\n<p class=\"content-author__text\">Megan Cerullo is a New York-based reporter for CBS MoneyWatch covering small business, workplace, health care, consumer spending and personal finance topics.
