As filed

Compared to the auction 2 weeks ago, no test on lighter weight steer calves, eight weight steers were 8.00 - 10.00 higher. Heifers weighing 800 - 900 lbs were fully steady to 2.00 lower. Available today were many load lots of quality yearling steers and heifers coming off grass. Demand was very good for today's moderate supply. Trade was active.

Steers 500–600 lb: high $509.23, low $388.25, median $461.09 across 13 sales. Sales under 10 head in this class are excluded, so a thin day cannot swing the median or the ranking.
