Chickens mature relatively quickly.

If you have to kill your entire flock of chickens and replace them with newly hatched chicks, they'll be laying in just over 4 months time.

Plus, if people stop buying eggs because of cost, it's not like you can store them and sell them later. So prices tend to go down faster than something that can be stored, like wheat or corn.
