Compared to two weeks ago, the best test was on the pot loads of 650-700 lb heifers which sold mostly 3.00-12.00 lower (the market two weeks ago was very active) with all other weights of feeder cattle lightly tested on comparable sales with very light offering of calves under 600 lbs, but all trading with a lower undertone.
