Compared to last Monday, the bulk of slaughter cows sold 5.00-6.00 lower with instances 8.00-10.00 lower and slaughter bulls sold 4.00-6.00 lower. A high percent of the offering went to slaughter and included a large number of cull dairy cows. Supply was heavy and demand light for slaughter classes.
