USDA culls nearly 1 million chickens at egg farm amid bird flu outbreak
Original: usda bird flu egg farm cull
Nearly one million chickens have been killed at an egg farm as the United States' largest bird flu outbreak continues to grow, according to The Independent. The mass cull is part of federal efforts to contain the virus, which has repeatedly hit US poultry flocks and driven up egg prices in recent years.
Why now: The scale of the cull raises fresh concerns about egg supply and prices as the outbreak worsens.
