ample. Drumsticks were ample. Wings

Prices were unchanged to higher for
brown eggs in New England, and
unchanged on the balance. The market tone
was steady for white eggs, and steady to
firm for brown eggs. Demand was fair to
very good, mostly moderate to good. Sup
plies of brown eggs were short of full
needs, and while egg supplies were gener
ally adequate or available. Breaking slock
supplies were adequate to instances fully
adequate, and the undertone was barely
steady to weak. Spent hen offerings were
light to adequate for the fair demand, and
the undertone was steady.
