Compared to two weeks ago: 3.00 to 8.00 higher except 650 lbs - 700 lbs steady to 3.00 lower, heifers 4.00 to 8.00 higher except 950 lbs - 1000 lbs steady to 1.00 higher. Demand for this very large offering was excellent. The barn was packed today due to the special BBQ sale. Several farmer buyers jumped on board to bid for these eye appealing green cattle. Most cattle were hauled in Saturday and Sunday. We some some light weight cattle today that will be harder to find in the coming weeks. Several long strings of yearlings were offered. CME Feeder Cattle closed lower, while corn took a big jump higher. Slaughter cows 1.00 to 3.00 higher. Bulls 2.00 to 4.00 higher.
