No comparison to last due to the Holiday but slaughter steers and heifers were trending higher with a good offering and better packer interest this week with active bidding. Holstein slaughter steers too few today. Cows and Holstein cows were trending higher and bulls steady to higher with a good offering of cows and bulls this week. Feeder steers were mostly steady with feeder heifers instances of higher/lower and feeder bulls trending higher today.
