As filed

Compared to the last auction two weeks ago, steer calves under 700 lbs sold steady with the exception of 600-650 lb steers selling mostly 5.00-10.00 higher and yearling steers over 700 lbs were not well tested but sold with a firm undertone. Heifer calves weighing 400-500 lbs on a light test sold with a firm to higher undertone with 500-700 lbs trading steady on comparable weights and two pot loads of 716 lb heifers off the same consignment as two weeks ago and weighing near the same sold with a firm undertone. Demand was good on a moderate supply with more new crop fall born calves in the offering this week showing a little more flesh in the offering this week. Several stick out sales included 80 hd of steers weighing 641 lbs at 444.75, 58 steers weighing 937 lbs at 335.25 and 156 hd of heifers weighing 716 lbs sold for 375.25. Slaughter cows traded with a higher undertone on last week's very light offering.
