A fire broke out at one of the largest egg farms in the U.S. over the weekend, which is not good news for egg prices.
Forsman Farms sells three million eggs per day and now thousands of chickens are expected to be dead after the flames broke out at a Forsman facility in Minnesota. Multiple fire departments were called in to help control the flames destroying a barn that housed chickens and manure.
The cause of the fire is still under investigation.
