Compared to the last special two weeks ago, 500-600 lbs and 700-800 lb steers sold 5.00-10.00 higher, with 600-700 lb steers selling 10.00-15.00 higher and two pot loads of big yearlings weighing 960-1005 lbs selling with a higher undertone. Feeder heifers weighing 500-600 lbs sold firm to 5.00 higher, 600-650 lbs traded steady and 650-700 lbs sold 5.00-10.00 higher and 700-750 lbs sold with a higher undertone. Slaughter cows traded steady. A nice attractive offering of calves and yearlings weighing mostly 500-800 lbs all sold on a active market. Replacement heifers were one of the main attractions and did not disappoint as quality was top notch and sold on a very active market especially a string (29 hd) weighing 772 lbs dropped the gavel at 215.00 per lb (1660 per hd).
