As filed

Compared to last week: Feeder steers and heifers that were value added and weaned both were 10.00 to 15.00 higher. Unweaned feeder steers sold 2.00 to 7.00 lower and unweaend heifers were 6.00 to 10.00 lower. Slaughter cows were mostly steady and slaughter bulls were not well tested. Demand was stong on a large supply of value added cattle, a light supply of unweaned cattle were not as attractive to buyers.

Slaughter cattle
