As filed

Compared to the last auction two week's ago, steer calves weighing 400-650 lbs sold steady to firm, with over 650 lbs lightly tested. Feeder heifers weighing under 550 lbs quality was not as attractive as two weeks ago with mostly new crop calves carrying flesh, 550-650 lbs sold mostly steady and two pot loads weighing 670-680 lbs sold steady to 3.00 lower than similar loads from two weeks ago. Slaughter cows on a much lighter offering sold steady. Demand was moderate to good, with best demand on 400-650 lb steer calves and a good quality offering of three pot loads of 6 weight heifers selling with good demand.
