4.  Use of Estimates
     The preparation of financial statements in conformity with generally
     accepted accounting principles requires management to make estimates
     and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities,
     the disclosures 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 may vary from those
     estimates.

5.  Investments in and Receivables from Unconsolidated Affiliates.
     The Company accounts for its investments in (5) five unconsolidated
     affiliates using the equity method.  The Company's share of earnings from
     from these affiliates totaled $1,012,000 for the 13 weeks ended July 03,
     1999. The earnings reported for these same affiliates totaled $1,902,000
     for the 13 weeks ended June 27, 1998.

6.  Year 2000 Compliance
     The Company implemented a formal plan to address issues associated with
     the Year 2000 during 1998 as these issues relate to systems throughout the
     Company and with vendors and customers.  Progress is monitored regularly
     and the status reported to the Board of Directors quarterly.  The Company
     completed its last major software system conversion during the July 4th
     weekend and hardware upgrade over the weekend of July 24th and 25th.
     All systems, internal and external (i.e. vendors and customers) will
     continue to be tested and monitored throughout the remainder of the time
     leading up to 1/1/2000. Substantially all of the Company's compliance
     activities are anticipated to be complete by the end of the second
     quarter of fiscal 2000.  Total budget for this project is expected to be
     less than $500,000.

Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial
Condition and Results of Operation
July 03, 1999


Financial Condition

The Company's continued strong profit performance to further strengthen its
financial condition during the quarter ended July 3, 1999 by paying down funded
debt and increasing shareholder equity.  Funded debt was $35,472,000 at July 3,
1999 as compared to $39,669,000 at April 3, 1999.  The Company had $20,970,000
available for borrowing under existing revolving loan agreement  as of July 3,
1999.
The Company is currently negotiating an addition to the current term credit
facility to fund the two previously announced capital projects, a processing
facility in Perry, GA and a feed mill in Rockmart, GA totaling $54,000,000.
This package is expected to close not later than September 30, 1999.  It is
expected that the total package will involve industrial revenue bonds at each
location.


Results of Operations

Sales for the 13 week period ended July 3, 1999 increased by 4.2% as compared
to the same period of a year ago and is due primarily to added volume created
by outside purchases as the Company prepares for new production that will be
generated through the new Perry, GA facility in early 2000.  In addition,
production tonnage from existing plants increased by 6.5% over the same period
of a year ago, however, continued depressed prices for export items, mostly
dark meat items, and lower than year ago prices for white meat, predominately
marketed as boneless breast and wings, offset to some extent the sales benefit
of the increased volume.  Gross margins for the quarter averaged 11.65% as
compared to 10.9% for the same period of a year ago.  Again, feed ingredient
cost was the major component of the margin increase as feed cost was 15.2%
lower than a year ago.  Feed grain cost is the largest single factor in the
production cost of a broiler chicken.


Selling, Delivery and Administrative Expenses

As a category, these expenses increased by 16.7% as compared to the
corresponding period of a year ago with the component exhibiting the major
increase being professional fees required as a result of a series of lawsuits
in which the Company is currently involved.


Interest Expense

Interest Expense for the quarter was 25.9% lower than for the same period of a
year ago and is a function of reduced debt levels and favorable interest rates.

<PAGE>

Other Income

Other income declined by 43% for the quarter as compared to a year ago and
reflects the import of start-up costs and the resulting losses associated with
the new Kentucky Joint Venture.


Income Taxes

The provision for income taxes reflects taxes at statutory rates adjusted for
available tax credits to which the company expects is entitled.
