As filed

Compared to last week, steers sold unevenly steady from 2.00 higher to 5.00 lower and heifers sold mostly 2.00 to 6.00 lower. Quality was less attractive for the majority of the offering compared to last week with more unweaned or short weaned calves in the mix. Very high quality offering of dairy steers this week after a few weeks with limited dairy receipts. Demand was good on a moderate supply.
