As filed

Compared to last week, feeders sold uneven as steers sold steady to 5.00 higher with the gain on those weighing 600-725 lbs, while heifer calves traded 3.00-6.00 lower and yearling heifers sold steady to 3.00 lower. Demand was good for a moderate supply. More yearlings were on hand this week for buyers to work with, including a couple loads along with several groups of quality calves. A good portion of the calves were un-weaned. Slaughter cows sold steady to 1.00 lower except the lean cows which traded 3.00-5.00 lower. Slaughter bulls sold mostly steady.
