As filed

Compared to light comparisons from last week, steers and heifers sold steady to 6.00 higher. Demand was good for several consignments of long weaned yearlings which made up the majority of the feeders and moderate to good for the calves offered. Supply was moderate to heavy and the majority of the cattle were in light to moderate flesh and good quality. Slaughter cows sold mixed with the fleshier breaking cows selling steady to 2.00 lower and lean and boning cows 3.00-5.00 lower. Slaughter bulls sold mostly steady.
