buying interest was mixed and selective,
and while showing some improvement,
remained no better than fair. Supplies of
boneless skinless breasts were fully adequ
ate to ample and demand was noted as
improving at several points. Whole breasts
were often noted as at least adequate and
generally more available on supplies of
yellow with the bulk of new trading at stea
dier price levels. Legs were fully adequate.
Leg quarters were in uneven balance but
adequate overall. Thighs and drums were
adequate with thighs in the closer balance.
Wings were adequate to fully adequate.

NATIONAL EGG MARKET - AT A
GLANCE: Trade lentiment was generally
iceady. Cartoned egg demand was active in
several areas as retail promotions stimu
lated some additional interest. Overall,
demand was mostly moderate. Supplies
were in an irregularly balanced position as
most dealers were able to obtain what they
needed. Breakers attempted to work as
close as possible with needs and watched
for further market developments.
