Compared to last week steer calves under 500 lbs and heifer calves under 600 lbs sold 10.00 to 15.00 higher. Heavier weights of steers and heifers sold steady to 5.00 lower all on a thin test. Slaughter and feeder cows sold 2.00 to 4.00 higher and slaughter bulls sold 3.00 higher. Demand was moderate to good throughout the week. Artic air across the state held back some cattle from the sales but it didn't deter buyers from participating especially on the grass type cattle. Also, demand for bred stock was good, especially on the short term cows.
