Yearling heifers 800 to 850 3.00 to 4.00 higher. Good demand for strings , loads, and a few packages that made up today's yearling offering with very good demand seen for a few loads of heifers off grass. Slightly more flesh on the yearlings this week, especially steers as most of these came out of feed yards. Moderate to good demand for many packages and a hand full of loads of spring calves offered today. Quality mostly average to attractive with slightly more flesh on the calves than last week, from light to moderate plus at times. Similar to last week, most of the calves had all their shots, or at least a full round of fall shots. A few packages with just 7 way were discounted.
