     financial statements, and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses
     during the reporting period.  Actual results may vary from those
     estimates.

capital spending required additional borrowing from bank lines of credit.  As
of July 01,2000 the Company had borrowed $15,000,000 against its $40,000,000
Revolving line of credit in addition to full funding of a $72,750,000 term
loan.

The processing facility at Perry, Ga. and Feed Mill in Rockmart, Ga. are
expected to become operational in early fall, having unforeseen requirements
that have arisen with the Perry facility will require additional funding which
is currently being negotiated and is expected to be available as needed.

Results of Operations

Sales for the 13 week period ended July 01, 2000 was 19.9% lower than for the
comparable period a year ago.  The decision is attributable to reduced selling
price as quoted market prices for boneless skinless breast meat average $.31
per lb. (18.7%) lower than for the same period a year ago.  Ga. Dock quotation
for whole birds was $1.39 per lb. Lower or (2.34%) and 2.22% less tonnage
produced within the Company due to reduced average bird size to meet marketing
requirements.  Additionally less product was purchased from outside sources for
resale in further processed form.  The impact of these lower market prices was
to lower gross margins by 8.84% as compared to a year ago since grain prices
remained favorable at very near year ago levels.

Selling, Delivery and Administrative Expenses

These expenses for the 13 weeks ended July 01, 2000 were 10.2% lower than for
the 13 weeks ended July 03, 1999 with the decrease spread over several
classifications including expenses associated with the Company's risk
management program, reduced provision for bonuses and lower cost associated
with outside services such as consultants.

Interest Expense

Interest expense for the quarter was 9.6% lower compared to the same period of
a year ago, while interest rates increased during the period a higher
percentage of the total interest outlay was capitalized as part of the two
major construction projects.

Other Income

Other income increased by 170% and is the result of an unconsolidated affiliate
which was in a loss situation during the period April 03, 1999 through July 03,
1999 reporting a profit during the period April 01, 2000 through July 01, 2000.

Income Taxes

The provision for income taxes reflects the taxes due at statutory rates
adjusted for available tax credit to which the company is entitled.  Due to
the reported loss for the reporting period a tax benefit is reflected to adjust
previous period accruals.
