As filed

Compared to last week, steers and heifers less than 800 lbs sold 3.00 to 7.00 higher, over 800 lbs sold steady to 2.00 higher. Demand was good from a large crowd of buyers. Special segment in Wednesday sale comprised of red angus influenced cattle. Demand was also good on these offerings with two purebred red angus breeders bidding on the offerings. Most lots were long time weaned and fully vaccinated. Next Wednesday another large run with 5000 to 5500 head expected.
