Compared to the last special two weeks ago, steer calves weighing 400-500 lbs were lightly tested, with 500-650 lbs selling 10.00-15.00 higher, spots 20 .00 higher on the 5 weight steers, a light test of 650-700 lb steers sold steady to firm, with 700-750 lbs trading 7.00-10.00 higher over 750 lbs were not tested. Feeder heifers weighing 500-600 lbs sold steady to firm, spots 3.00 higher and 600-700 lbs sold with a firm to higher undertone on a much lighter offering from two weeks ago, over 700 lbs were not tested. Demand was good to very good to start the year, especially on the steer calves much more than the heifer calves. Quality was very good on the steers weighing 500-750 lbs with many groups and part loads in the offering along with the 600-700 lb heifers all selling on and active market. Slaughter cows sold steady with two weeks ago.
