Compared to last week, 450-500 lbs and 550-600 lb steer calves sold firm to 4.00 higher, with 500-550 lbs and 600-650 lb steers selling 5.00-10.00 higher and over 650 lbs traded with a firm undertone on a light offering. Feeder heifers weighing 400-600 lbs sold 5.00-8.00 higher with heifers over 600 lbs selling with a firm undertone. Demand was good to very good with supply heavy. Supply included a top quality offering of calves with several consignments of fancy black steers and heifers weighing from 400-650 lbs that sold on a very active market with a pot load of thin 705 lb yearling heifers also selling with very good demand as buyers were active throughout the day. Demand for steers in particular weighing 500-550 lbs and 600-650 lbs and heifers weighing 400-600 lbs. Slaughter cows sold steady.
