NATIONAL EGG MARKET - AT A
GLANCE: Prices were unchanged. The
market tone stabilized, and was generally
steady. Demand remained mixed, and was
mostly fair. Supplies were adequate, and
still generally available, but most sellers
held excess offerings with more confi
dence. Breaking stock supplies were usual
ly adequate, and inquiry to purchase eggs
increased. Live hen markets were at least
steady, and offerings were no more than
adequate for the mixed and mostly mod
erate demand.
