Compared to last week, a light test of weaned steer calves weighing 400-600 lbs sold unevenly steady, a good quality offering of yearling steers weighing 650-900 lbs sold with a firm to higher undertone with few comparisons from last week. Heifer calves weighing 450-550 lbs on a lighter offering sold unevenly steady to 3.00 lower, heifers over 650 lbs were lightly tested with last week. Slaughter cows sold mostly 3.00-5.00 lower. Demand was moderate to good on a moderate offering, best on yearling steers selling on and active market with seven pot loads and several part loads of good quality yearling steers selling with good weighing conditions. Several groups of unweaned calves sold with light to moderate demand.
