As filed

Compared to the last special two weeks ago, feeder steers weighing 400-700 lbs sold 3.00-6.00 higher with weights over 700 lbs not well tested on limited sales. Feeder heifers weighing 400-700 lbs sold steady to 5.00 higher with weights over 700 lbs trading with a higher undertone. There was a nice offering of good quality mostly weaned calves weighing 450-650 lbs selling with moderate to good demand. Slaughter cows sold steady to firm.
