Readers will notice that hatchability started to improve compared to the five-year average last summer. But since mid-January, hatchability has plummeted more so than normal and is now essentially even with prior year. Disease issues are to blame which will impact the broiler supply at least in the near term.![](https://media.licdn.com/dms/image/D5612AQFxFCTUyIVj5w/article-inline_image-shrink_1500_2232/0/1715196981877?e=1720656000&v=beta&t=EFlkV-xdcQon65j8ICv3ILzv4dvGUXofRqAXy7XU2r4) This could have a significant impact on chicken prices in the coming months.
