were available but slightly improved
from early week, bone-in breasts were
noted as about adequate to a balanced
position. Dark meat cuts were fully suffi
cient, with thighs reported in the longest
position. Wings were generally ade
quate, although party wings were short.
Movement through retail and distribu
tive channels was about fair, and was
best for the occasional feature. The
market tone was fully steady on bone-in
breasts, improved on party wings, and
about steady on the balance.
