Pennsylvania State Police are hunting for thieves who stole about 100,000 eggs from a wholesaler's warehouse over the weekend .

The haul is worth more than $40,000 retail amid a national shortage that has caused prices to surge.

Egg prices have soared more than 50% since last year , according to a consumer price index report.

Farmers are contending with a bird flu outbreak that has forced them to cull millions of hens to try to stop the disease's spread.
