As filed

Compared to last week, most lots of steer calves sold steady, except flat 5 weights sold 5.00 higher and flat 6 weights traded 10.00 higher. Fly-weight heifer calves sold 6.00 to 8.00 higher with weights over 500 lbs mostly steady. Yearling steers 2.00 to 6.00 higher and yearling heifers 3.00 to 7.00 higher. Demand was good from start to finish with several buyers staying until the end of the sale filling loads on small packages. Bulk of the yearlings came off of grass. Most calves had precondition shots. Some lightweight calves going south for winter grazing. Next week will be a Special Calf and Yearling Auction.
