As filed

Compared to the last auction three weeks ago, steer and heifer calves under 550 lbs were lightly tested and sold with a higher undertone, 550-650 lb steers sold 3.00-7.00 higher, 650-700 lbs sold steady on a light test, with 700-750 lbs trading firm to 4.00 higher. Feeder heifers had the best test on 600-700 lbs selling 4.00-6.00 higher with the most advance on the 600-650 lbs. Demand was good on a good quality offering of steers and heifers weighing mostly 600-750 lbs selling on and active market. Buyers came back after a three week break wanting to procure feeders and do business with temperatures near 60 degrees. Slaughter cows sold 2.00-4.00 higher.
