Compared to last week steers 500 - 600 lbs were steady with a weak undertone. Steers 600 - 700 lbs suitable for grass were 9.00 to 10.00 higher. Steers 700 - 1000 were 1.00 to 4.00 higher with the exception of 900 - 950 lb steers being 2.00 lower. The heifers under 850 lbs were 2.00 to 7.00 higher again due to grass suitable heifers. Heifers 850 -900 lbs were 3.00 - 4.00 lower. There was a nice offering of grass quality steers and heifers today. The receipts were moderate with good demand.
