N.E. Chicken Parts
Dec. 12, 1990
Trucklot buying interest was light and
cautious. Boneless skinless breasts were
adequate to fully adequate with spot avail
ability noted at $1.65. Supplies of breasts
with ribs and line run increased and were
about adequate overall. Leg items were
fully adequate to ample except thighs
which cleared well at current prices.
Wings continued in seasonally good
demand, although buyers in some
instances were less aggressive.

Prices were unchanged to higher. The
market tone was fully steady to firm
Demand at all levels was moderate to very
good, mostly good and best for featured
cartoned eggs, and wholesale large graded
and ungraded eggs. Offerings were mini

stocks were short to adequate, usually
closely balanced. Breakers expressed a
good demand for the limited shell egg
offerings, and prices were higher. A large
volume of specially packed dried egg mix
was purchased for military distribution

Light-type hen offerings were adequate for
a mostly moderate demand, and prices
were steady.
