Compared with the auction two weeks ago on Friday, 550 to 600 lbs steers traded 7.00 to 14.00 higher and 700 to 800 lbs steers traded steady to 10.00 lower. A limited number of comparable heifer offerings with 600 lbs trading sharply higher. Demand was very good with a big crowd, several buyers and active internet bidding.
