Compared to two weeks ago, the best test was on the pot loads of 650-700 lb heifers which sold mostly 3.00-12.00 lower (the market two weeks ago was very active) with all other weights of feeder cattle lightly tested on comparable sales with very light offering of calves under 600 lbs, but all trading with a lower undertone. Demand was moderate to good on a moderate supply. There were 9 pot loads of yearlings, with 8 pot loads of good quality heifers weighing from 595-720 lbs with several stick-out sales of heifers, pot load 595 lbs 282.85, pot load 639 lbs 273.25, two pot loads (164 hd) all black 269.50, pot load 720 lbs 250.35 and a pot load of steers weighing 690 lbs at 280.75. Slaughter Cows sold mostly steady on a light offering.
