As filed

Compared to last week feeder steers and heifers under 500 lbs sold mostly 10.00 to 20.00 lower. Steers and heifers over 500 lbs sold un-even to steady with weaned cattle over 500 lbs holding their own to last week. A larger offering of new crop calves pushed the market lower this week. With summertime temperatures approaching buyers were discounting long haired and un-weaned cattle that aided the lower trend. Slaughter cows were 2.00 to 10.00 higher and slaughter bulls were not well tested. Demand was good and supply was good.

Slaughter cattle
