As filed

Compared to last week slaughter steers and heifers were 2.00 lower with a good offering but lower packer interest this week. Holstein slaughter steers were significantly higher with some higher quality Holstein. Cows were 6.00 to 7.00 higher and bulls 3.00 higher with better buyer interest today and higher dressing cows and bulls. Feeder steers had instances of higher/lower with feeder heifers 7.00 to 10.00 higher and bulls significantly lower and active buyer participation and lots of fancy type feeders today.
