As filed

Compared to last week, steers and heifers under 700lbs were mostly steady to 2.00 higher. Steers over 700lbs sold steady to 2.00 lower and heifers over 700lbs were not well tested. Supply was light and demand good for the more desirable feeders in the offering and light for the lower quality calves that made up the majority of the offering this week.
