As filed

Compared to last week, Weaned and vaccinated Feeder steers and heifers sold 10.00 to 15.00 higher today with strong demand from buyers. This was the last feeder sale for the year end, and a good offering of quality calves with several pot loads were offered through the sale ring. Fleshy unweaned cattle traded steady to firm. Slaughter cows and bulls traded steady to 3.00 higher.
