Trucklot buying activity was at least moderate to good entering the             
weekend.  Offerings of breast items and tenders remained in close balance       
to short of current needs; wings and most dark meat cuts were mostly            
moderate.  Retail and distributive movement was fair to moderate.  The          
market tone was firm for breast items; steady for wings and most dark meat      
cuts.
