Compared to last week's auction, 500-600 lb steers were 5.00 to 7.00 higher; 700-800 lb were 6.00 - 8.00 higher. Heifers weighing 600 -700 lbs were 6.00 to 8.00 higher. Supply was moderate today with several load lots available. Demand was good to very good for today's offering of quality, long-time weaned and green feeder calves.
