Trading activity was fair overall and suf
ficient to keep supplies in good balance to
tight depending on the item. Inquiry for
breasts remains fairly active and difficult to
fill particularly on line run breasts. Cutlets
were still adequate and most buyers could
still cover current needs at 1.60. Legs and
leg quarters were m belter balance but
adequate for immedeiate deliveries Wings
were well cleared and dealers were willing
to build some inventory on this item
Giblets were irregular but have moved into
a closer balance m a few quarters.

Frozen Egg Report
Tuesday, February 9, 1988
Prices were trending higher on whites,
unchanged to lower on other items. The
lackluster demand for yolks continued to
add pressure on the whites as an increasing
number of processors were unwilling to
separate Floor stocks were fully sufficient
to handle buyer interest.
