Prices are trending steady to weak for wings and dark meat cuts; weak for       
breast items.  Trucklot buying activity is light as dealers remained            
cautious and unaggressive approaching the weekend.  Offerings of dark meat      
cuts and wings are moderate to heavy with Jumbo sized wings, thighs and         
drums slightly more available.  Boneless skinless breast and bone-in breast     
are moderate to mostly heavy and tenders readily available for current          
needs.  Market activity is slow to moderate.
