Last South Dakota Farm Hit By Bird Flu To Start Selling Eggs

FLANDREAU, S.D. — The last poultry farm still recovering from last year’s deadly bird flu outbreak has begun producing eggs again and plans to start stocking local stores shortly.

Scott Ramsdell, the CEO of Flandreau-based Dakota Layers, said Friday that their eggs will be on local store shelves within a week. He said they’re at about 35 percent of their normal production and estimated they won’t be back to full production until September.

“It really helps boost morale when you start being able to put some eggs back through and hopefully get back to the norm,” he said.
