As filed

Compared to last week, the best test on steer calves were weighing 450-550 lbs and sold mostly 5.00 higher, with 550-600 lbs selling steady to firm and a nice offering of yearling steers weighing over 600 lbs sold with a sharply higher undertone with very few comparisons from last week. Feeder heifers weighing 450-650 lbs on comparable sales sold steady to firm. Good overall quality on feeders with weighing conditions very good, with three pot loads of yearling steers weighing over 800 lbs all sold with very good demand. Demand was good with supply light to moderate.
