Compared to last week, 400-600 lb steer calves sold mostly steady, with 600-650 lbs selling steady to 3.00 higher with instances up to 5.00 higher, 700-725 lb steers sold mostly 6.00 lower. Feeder heifers weighing 400-500 lbs on a light test sold steady to 5.00 lower, with 500-600 lbs selling 4.00-6.00 lower with overall quality not as attractive as last week, over 600 lbs were not well tested. Slaughter cows traded with a firm to higher undertone with last week's very light offering. Demand was moderate to good with supply moderate. The best demand was on the good quality blk feeder steers weighing 500-650 lbs selling on and active market.
