Compared to last week steers over 600 lbs sold steady to 7.00 higher and heifer over 600 lbs sold sharply lower except for 750-800 lbs heifers that sold steady to 9.00 higher. Demand was moderate to good from the buyers in the crowd with internet bidding and buying noticed. The consignment sheet consisted of long time weaned and vaccinated steers and heifers.
