Egg prices in New York show slight increases for mediums, stability to slight decreases for large, and flat overall. Receipts are light to moderate as distributors limit arrivals to forecasted needs. Local demand is uneven with occasional improvement as loads reach out of town markets. Extra large eggs are irregularly distributed and barely adequate to short. Large and medium whites are plentiful with country point offerings irregularly rising. Buying inquiries for smalls are limited, reflecting narrow price spreads with mediums.
