for light features and more traditional
holiday foods. Food service was light to
fairly good as catered holiday functions,
fast food promotions, and restaurant
business attracted additional interest.
Supplies were at least adequate and
available, at times long for heavier sizes.
In the parts structure, breast items
moved into a better position, particularly
bone-in, and cleared well. Wings were
sufficient, but closer balanced for party
wings, and dark meat was at least avail
able. In production areas, live supplies
were moderate. Weights were in a full
range.
