Wed., June 29, 1988
Demand for ready-to-cook whole birds
was fairly good. Supplies were adequate
and well cleared. In the parts complex legs
and leg quarters continued to be short of
trade needs. Whole breast were at least
adequate while the remaining items were
generally adequate. Less than trucklot ask
ing prices were 2 cents higher at 65 to 73
cents. Live supplies were light to heavy.
Weights were desirable to light. Slaughter
schedules were moderately heavy. The
undertone was fully steady.
