As filed

Compared to last week, steers and heifers sold with a strong demand from buyers with the majority of calves under 600 lbs selling steady to 5.00 higher with some classes selling as much as 10.00 higher. The majority of the calves were weaned and vaccinated and several loads of yearlings were on hand. Calves with excessive flesh and unweaned were not as attractive to buyers. The supply was moderate to heavy.
