As filed

Compared to last week, steer calves under 650 lbs and heifer calves under 600 lbs all sold with a sharply higher undertone on a very limited test from last week, but overall quality was very good with several groups of long timed weaned calves with shots all sold on a very active market. There was 3 pot loads of 7 weight heifers selling with a firm to higher undertone with 7 weight heifers last week scarce and a part load of 665 lb heifers trading steady with last week's pot loads. Demand was very good on a light to moderate offering with calves selling in packages and small drafts but top quality as were the pot loads of heifers. Several stick out sales included the pot load of heifers with pot load weighing 721 lbs at 379.75, pot load weighing 719 lbs at 375.50, and pot load weighing 786 lbs at 357.50. Slaughter cows on a light offering sold with a higher undertone.
