     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.

Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial
Condition and Results of Operation
January 1, 2000

Financial Condition

Sharply lower market prices for broiler and broiler meat products have had a
major impact on earnings for the quarter and for the nine month period ended
January 1, 2000 as compared to year ago levels, yet the Company remains
profitable and in a strong financial position.  During the quarter, the
Company closed a new credit facility comprised of a $72,750,000 term loan
and a $40,000,000 revolving credit facility.  The new term loan is being
utilized to construct the new processing facility at Perry, Ga. and a new
feed mill in Rockmart, Ga.  As of January 1, 2000 $48,055,500 had been
advanced on the term loan and there were no amounts outstanding on the revolver.

Results of Operations

Sales for the 13 week period ended January 1, 2000 were 7.4% lower as compared
to the comparable period ended January 2, 1999 and 4.8% lower for the 39 week
period ended January 1, 2000.  The lower revenue is the result of significantly
lower market prices for broilers and especially white meat items.  Export
markets have continued to be very weak keeping downward pressure on dark meat,
mainly leg quarters and drumsticks.  These market factors account for all of
the lower revenues for the 13 week period compared to year ago levels.  The
year to date revenue for the 39 weeks ended January 1, 2000 is also impacted
by 1 less week when compared to year to date revenues for the period ended
January 2, 1999.
Gross margins for the quarter were 6.9% lower than for the same quarter of a
year ago and the year to date gross margin was 3.7% lower than for the
comparable period of a year ago.  These sharply reduced margins are the direct
result of lower market prices as cost of production, primarily feed grain cost,
have continued to be a favorable factor for margins.

Selling, Delivery and Administrative Expenses

Expenses in this category increased by 25.6% and 14.8% for the quarter and 9
month period, respectively, as compared to the quarter and 9 month period
ending January 2, 1999.  This increase is attributed to increased professional
fees associated with ongoing litigation and sharing of management personnel to
staff the new facilities at Perry, Ga. and Rockmart, Ga. as well as marketing
the anticipated increase in volume.

Interest Expense

Interest Expense was lower by 9.5% and 29.7%, respectively, for the quarter
and 9 month period as compared to the same periods of a year ago.  This
reflects lower over all borrowing levels with the expectation of project
financing amounts of which the associated interest was capitalized.

Other Income

Other income for the 13 weeks ended January 1, 2000 increased by 228.9% as
compared to the 13 weeks ended January 2, 1999 and increased by 2.5% for the
9 months ended January 1, 2000 as compared to the same period ended January
2, 1999.  This increase is due to the Kentucky joint ventures company
attaining profitable operational levels.

Income Taxes

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