actually that’s quite normal if something like a disease were to come through a region. The variability in price by region is inherent in the deterioration of all food stuffs. It’s why avocados are cheaper in the SW and oranges are cheaper in the SE. Eggs are also regional, but they’re in every region. This is why there’s wildly different prices in eggs, because bird flu might be wreaking havoc 2 states over, but isn’t a big deal where you live.
That being said, eggs dropping 50% and milk by more than 100% in any one market? That is unusual market behavior.
Except that that’s not how market adjustments work, buddy. They never go down that abruptly, pal. They adjust slowly to find the happy medium that maximizes profits, guy. That big of a drop in that short of a time isn’t a market adjustment, friendo. You’ve got a lot to learn before you start talking down to people, champ.

They’re paying people to take milk now?

OJ is at $3/qt here, but a gallon of no name from concentrate is 9.
