  INDEPENDENT AUDITORS' REPORT

Steering Committee of Cagle Foods JV, L.L.C.:
We have audited the accompanying balance sheets of Cagle Foods JV, L.L.C.
(the "Company") as of January 1, 2000 and January 2, 1999 and the related
statements of income, members' equity, and cash flows for the years then ended.
These financial statements are the responsibility of the Company's management.
Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements based
on our audits.
We conducted our audits in accordance with generally accepted auditing
standards.  Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to
obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of
material misstatement.  An audit includes examining, on a test basis, evidence
supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements.  An audit
also includes assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates
made by management, as well as evaluating the overall financial position
presenation.  We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our
opinion.

In our opinion, the financial statements referred to above present fairly, in
all material respects, the financial position of the Company as of January 1,
2000 and January 2, 1999 and the results of its operations and its cash flows
for the years then ended in conformity with generally accepted accounting
principles.

Cagle Foods JV, L.L.C.
NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
AS OF AND FOR THE YEARS ENDED
 JANUARY 1, 2000 AND JANUARY 2, 1999

1. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

Description of Business
Cagle Foods JV, L.L.C. (the "Company") was established as a Limited Liability
Company on March 27, 1993 and is a joint venture between Cagle's, Inc. and
Executive Holdings L.P.  The Company's operations are located in Camilla,
Georgia.  The latest date at which the Limited Liability Company is to dissolve
is 2022.  The Company is engaged in the production and sale of processed
chicken.  Primarily all of the Company's sales are made to the joint venture
partners (see Note 3).  Keystone Foods, LLC is an entity related through common
ownership with Executive Holdings, L.P.

Revenue Recognition
The Company recognizes revenue when product is shipped to customers.

Inventories
Live field inventories are stated at the lower of cost or market, and breeders
are stated at cost, less accumulated amortization. Breeder costs are
accumulated up to the production stage.  Such costs are amortized into hatching
egg costs over the estimated production lives based on monthly egg production.
Finished products, feed, medication, and supplies are stated at the lower of
cost or market determined by the first-in, first-out method.

Inventories at January 1, 2000 and January 2, 1999, respectively, consist of
the following (in thousands):
                                               1999                  1998
                                             --------              --------
Finished products                            $  3,995              $  4,059
Field inventory, breeders, and eggs            10,495                10,975
Feed, ingredients, and medication               1,348                 1,207
Supply Inventory                                  442                   476
                                             --------              --------
                                             $ 16,280              $ 16,717
 .                                            ========              ========

Property, Plant, and Equipment
Property, plant, and equipment is stated at cost. Depreciation is computed
principally by the straight-line method for financial reporting purposes
over the following periods:
          Buildings and improvements                     3-30 years
          Machinery, furniture and equipment             3-17 years
          Vehicles                                       1-8  years

The Company evaluates the estimated useful lives and the carrying value of
assets on a periodic basis to determine whether events or circumstances warrant
revised estimated useful lives or whether any impairment exists.  Management
believes no impairment existed at January 1, 2000.
<PAGE>

Other Assets
Other assets consist primarily of loan origination fees which are amortized on
a straight-line basis over seven years.  Accumulated amortization related to
loan origination fees was $509,000 at January 1, 2000 and $841,000 at January 2,
1999.

Investments in Unconsolidated Affiliates
The equity method of accounting is used to account for the Company's investments
in unconsolidated affiliates because of the Company's ability to exercise
significant influence.

Fair Value of Financial Instruments
The carrying amounts of cash, accounts receivable, and accounts payable
reflected in the financial statements approximate fair values because of the
short-term nature of these instruments.  Based on the borrowing rates currently
available to the Company for bank loans with similar terms and maturities, the
Company estimates that the carrying value of its long-term debt approximates
fair value.  The fair value of the interest rate swaps (see Note 2) is based on
confirmation with the counter-party.

Use of Estimates
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with generally accepted
accounting principles requires management to make estimates and assumptions
that affect reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of
contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and
the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period.
Actual results could differ from those estimates.

Fiscal Year-End
The Company follows a fiscal year which ends on the Saturday nearest to the end
of the month of December.

Income Taxes
The Company is a Limited Liability Company and has received a ruling from the
Internal Revenue Service which allows the Company to be treated as a
partnership for income tax purposes.  As a partnership, it is not subject to
income taxes and the partners report their proportionate share of the income on
their tax returns.

Interest Rate Swap Agreements
These agreements involve the receipt of a floating-rate of interest on
long-term debt in exchange for a fixed rate of interest over the life of the
agreements without an exchange of the underlying debt principal amount.  The
differential to be paid or received is accrued as interest rates change and
recognized as an adjustment to interest expense related to the debt.  The fair
values of the swap agreements are not recognized in the financial statements.

Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities
In June 1998, the Financial Accounting Standards Board ("FASB") issued
Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 133, Accounting for Derivative
Instruments and Hedging Activities ("SFAS 133").  This statement establishes
accounting and reporting standards for derivative instruments, including certain
derivative instruments embedded in other contracts, and for hedging activities.
It requires that an entity recognize all derivatives as either assets or
liabilities in the statement of financial position and measure those
instruments at fair value.  This statement is effective for the Company for year
2001.  The Company has not completed the process of evaluating the impact that
will result from adopting SFAS 133.  The Company is therefore unable to disclose
the impact that adopting SFAS 133 will have on its financial position and
results of operations when such statement is adopted.

The Company has entered into interest rate swap agreements to reduce the impact
of changes in interest rates on its term and revolving note agreement which
expire June 30, 2000.  At January 1, 2000 and January 2, 1999, the Company had
two outstanding interest rate swap agreements having an aggregate notional
amount of $4.2 million and $11.2 million, respectively.  The notional amount
declines over the term of the swap agreement.  Approximately $5,361 and
($77,745) in unrealized gains/(losses) exist on these agreements at January 1,
2000 and January 2, 1999, respectively. These agreements effectively fix the
average interest rate on $4.2 million of the Company's term and revolving loan
agreements at 5.845% plus a spread based on the Company's debt-to-cash-flow
ratio through 2000.  Under the terms of the agreements, the Company makes
payments at fixed rates and receives payments at variable rates based on LIBOR
adjusted quarterly.

On December 31, 1997, Fundco, on behalf of the Company and Kentucky, entered
into two additional interest rate swap agreements with expiration dates of
December 31, 2002, which effectively fix the rate on notional amounts of $61.7
million at 5.99%, plus a spread based on the Company's debt-to-cash-flow ratio.
These notional amounts change in the future based on amounts outstanding under
the Company's term and revolving loan agreements.  Under the terms of the
agreements, the Company makes payments at fixed rates and receives payments at
variable rates based on the three-month LIBOR rate.  Approximately $1,058,162
and $53,098 in unrealized gains exist on these agreements at January 1, 2000 and
January 2, 1999, respectively.  The Company does not intend to terminate these
agreements prior to the maturity date.  The Company is exposed to credit loss in
the event of nonperformance by the other party to the interest rate swap
agreement.  However, the Company does not anticipate nonperformance by the
counter-parties.

At January 1, 2000 the Company had an unused standby letter of credit amounting
to $350,000.

6.	BENEFIT PLANS
Substantially all of the Company's union employees are covered by a union-
sponsored multi-employer defined benefit plan to which the Company contributes
amounts specified by the union contract.  A separate actuarial valuation for
this plan is not made for the Company.  Accordingly, information with respect to
accumulated plan benefits and net assets available for benefits is not

amended in 1980, an employer upon withdrawal from a multi-employer plan is
required, in certain cases, to continue funding its proportionate share of the
plan's unfunded vested benefits.  As of November 1, 1997, the union contract was
negotiated and as a result, pension benefits were increased by approximately
25%.  Amounts paid for pension benefits for union employees totaled
approximately $340,000 in 1999 and $356,000 in 1998.

The Company also has a 401(k) retirement plan for employees not covered under
the collective bargaining agreement.  Under the plan, the Company contributes up
to 2% of participating employees' salaries.  Amounts contributed by the Company
to the 401(k) plan totaled approximately $41,000 in 1999 and $42,000 in 1998..
