Northeast Chicken Parts October 26, 1988 Buying interest remained light to fair and generally selective. Cutlets were irre gularly available and in slightly better balance; however, the bulk of new busi ness was at lower price levels. Whole breasts, mainly line run, were discounted in a few instances, but the bulk of product was m fairly good balance at unchanged prices. Legs were moving into better balance, mainly due to a good call for leg quarters, which were no more than adequ ate. Some spot pricing reported on leg quarters for neat week’s delivery at 29 cents and some with caps of 30 cents for large volumes. Wings continued to build in availability and overall movement had slowed.
