Compared to last week, yearlings sold with a firm undertone and calves sold steady to weak. Demand was moderate. Supply was light, affected by the first snowfall of the season. As is typical this time of year, some large price spreads were seen for cattle in the same weight range depending upon their weaned status and what flesh condition they were in. Slaughter cows sold mostly steady except for some high dressing breakers selling with a higher undertone.
