The entire recall is focused on the production from one factory farm in Galt, Iowa, owned by the DeCoster family.
They've received millions of dollars in fines, been charged with abuse of employees including rape. Yet they continue to do business.

Are they blaming the chickens?

It will be interesting to see what the cause of this is. As you mentioned; the Decosters are not best people in the world.
I won't be surprised this was caused by corner cutting somewhere.
I didn't realize they had such a big role in egg production in Iowa.
Iowa is the largest egg producer in the nation due to all the corn raised here.
