Compared to last week slaughter steers were 2.00 to 7.00 higher and slaughter heifers 6.00 higher with a good offering and better packer interest. No Holstein slaughter steers today but Dairy/Beef steers and heifers were sharply higher with high quality D/B steers and heifers this week. Cows had instances of higher/lower and bulls too few to compare. Feeder steers were steady to lower and feeder heifers mostly steady with feeder bulls trending lower on a low test of all feeders today.
