Compared to the last special two weeks ago, steer calves under 600 lbs sold with a higher undertone, the best test was on 600-700 lb steers selling 7.00-10.00 higher spots 12.00 higher, with 700-750 lbs trading 3.00-4.00 higher over 750 lbs were not well tested with two weeks ago. Feeder heifers under 550 lbs sold with a higher undertone with 550-650 lbs selling mostly 5.00-7.00 higher, 650-750 lbs sold with a higher undertone on few comparisons. Slaughter cows sold 2.00-5.00 lower. Demand was moderate to good on a moderate to heavy supply. Overall a good quality offering of feeders weighing mostly 550-800 lbs best on steers weighing 500-750 lbs and heifers weighing 500-650 lbs.
