Supplies of boneless skinless breasts with tenders were in close balance with a good demand for both immediate needs and for next week deliveries. Trading was at current prices but the undertone wu firm. Whole breasts were readily available at most shipping points; offered at lower prices; and slow to clear. Buyers were very selective and also very cautious. The undertone wu weak and unsettled. Dark meat items and wings were well cleared to a good call at steady prices and the trade sentiment was steady.
