Compared to last week, steers and heifers traded steady to firm except for 600-700 lb steers selling 5.00-10.00 higher. Overall demand was good but several groups of cattle in thin flesh were available and saw very good demand with grass close. Supply was moderate. The ground has dried significantly over the last couple weeks with several days of sunshine, but still not quite warm enough for things to really take off growing. Slaughter cows sold mostly 10.00 lower.
