As filed

Compared to last week: Feeder steers under 500 lbs sold 1.00 - 11.00 lower, however feeder steers over 500 lbs sold 1.00 - 2.00 higher. Feeder heifers sold 2.00 - 10.00 higher. Slaughter cows sold mostly steady. Slaughter bulls not well tested due to limited comparable offerings. Had a nice small sell out of fancy replacement cattle.
