Layer Cage System
Movement of ready-to-cook whole birds
and parts was light and unaggressive, typ
ical for mid-week, but disappointing for
the first part of the month. Seller offer
ings on whole birds continued to vary by
size, and were fully sufficient for current
inquiry. Live supplies were moderate;
weights were in a full range of light to
heavy. Processor schedules were moderate
to moderately heavy. Less than trucklot
asking prices were unchanged at 56 to 66
cents. Trade sentiment was barely steady
to steady. In the parts complex, all cuts
were at least adequate for immediate
needs.
