As filed

Compared to last week, slaughter steers were 1.00 to 4.00 higher with slaughter heifers 5.00 higher with higher packer bids this week and a good offering of steers and heifers. No comparison on Holstein slaughter steers today. Cows had instances of higher/lower with bulls 5.00 lower. Feeder calves were too few to compare but were trending lower.
