Trucklot buying interest remained mix
ed but was improving overall, inquiry was
most active for short supplies of bone-in
breasts. Boneless skinless breasts were
barely adequate to short for immediate
shipment with spot offerings noted avail
able for delivery next week. Leg items
were in tighter supply, particularly legs
and leg quarters. Wings were in excess and
slow to clear.
