Fewer load lots were seen, however buyers were content to piece together loads as demand remains good to very good for all offerings. Demand for light weight calves suitable to go to grass was very good again today. The best demand for calves to go to grass was for 400-550 lbs for steers and 375-525 lbs for heifers. Market activity was active this sale with buyers rapidly bidding on offerings. Weigh up cows sold on moderate demand and heavy offerings. Slaughter cows sold mostly 3.00-5.00 higher on all classes in a narrow comparison. Feeding cows sold with the best demand again this week. Feeding cows sold with steady to 3.00 higher undertones.
