As filed

Compared to the last auction two weeks ago, steer and heifer calves weighing under 500 lbs were not tested on a very light offering, 500-600 lb steers sold steady to firm, with 600-700 lbs steers trading 3.00-5.00 higher, spots 7.00 higher, 700-750 lbs sold steady to 2.00 lower and yearling steers weighing 750-800 lbs sold with a lower undertone on few comparisons. Feeder heifers weighing 500-600 lbs sold 4.00-6.00 higher, with 600-650 lbs trading steady to 3.00 higher and 650-700 lbs sold with a lower undertone on a light test. Demand was good on a good offering of top quality calves and yearlings weighing 500-750 lbs with several part loads and pot loads in the offering and selling with overall good weighing conditions. Slaughter cows on a light test sold 2.00-4.00 lower than two weeks ago.
