Compared to last week slaughter cows sold 5.00 to 7.00 higher and slaughter bulls sold 7.00 higher. Compared to two weeks ago feeder steers and heifers sold 2.00 to 3.00 lower with the exception of a 900 lb heifer which sold steady to 2.00 higher. Demand was good, especially for the preg tested open heifers from producers replacement stock. Few, fly weight calves made there way to town as the pastures are very dry and short. Producers sold calves to help cows try to gain some weight going into fall and winter. Hay prices across the state fully steady. Quite a lot of the hay is staying with in the state. Most of the time the bulk of the hay gets shipped to other states.
