SHELL EGGS: Daily Southeast Regional Eggs                                       
                                                                                

Prices were unchanged.  The market tone was fully steady to firm.  Retail       
demand was fairly good to good.  The South Atlantic shell egg inventory was     
10% lower when compared to the previous week's values.  Supplies were           
barely adequate on larger sizes and about adequate on medium eggs for trade     
needs.  Eastern region breaking stock offerings were at best sufficient for     
the fair to fairly good demand.  Light type hen offerings were generally        
balanced; processing schedules were normal.
