As filed

Compared to last week, steer calves and light yearling steers sold steady to 2.00 lower. Heavier yearling steers didn't have a recent comparison, however a firm undertone noted on the offerings available. Heifers under 500 lbs weaker on limited comparison; over 500 lbs sold steady to 2.00 higher. Demand moderate to good as supply was moderate. A nice offering of calves were on offer with several unweaned and fleshy consignments in the offering. In addition, five loads of yearlings were in the offering this week. Slaughter cows sold 2.00 to 4.00 higher. Slaughter bulls sold steady.
