Heifers sold firm to 5.00 higher based on light comparisons from last week, however some of the lighter fleshed heifers under 600 lbs sold upwards of 8.00-10.00 higher. Demand was good to very good with mostly long weaned yearlings in attractive condition and quality on offer. Several load lots were sold throughout the day. The cash fed market finally gained some ground last week and futures moved higher on Monday.
