Daily Northeast Broiler/Fryer Parts as of 11:30                                 
                                                                                

Prices are trending steady to weak for dark meat cuts, tenders, thighs 
and thigh meat.  Boneless skinless breast are mostly steady.  Trucklot 
buying activity is light and unaggressive as dealers saw no need to 
extend floor stocks beyond normally committed product.  Offerings of 
tenders are moderate to heavy and noted in better balance than earlier 
in the week;  wings and boneless skinless breast are at least sufficient 
and thighs and thigh meat available for current needs.  Market activity 
is slow to moderate.
