As filed

Compared to last week, steer calves under 650 lbs sold mostly 4.00-7.00 higher and those over 650 lbs steady. Heifers traded firm to 4.00 higher. The exception to the previous trends were the calves under 450 lbs selling mostly 10.00-13.00 higher on very good demand. Trade was active and demand was good to very good with a full house of buyers in the seats. Mostly good quality calves with just a few yearlings in the mix, however some long weaned stocker type cattle under 575 lbs in attractive condition were offered. Supply was moderate. Slaughter cows sold mostly 3.00-6.00 higher, spots up to 8.00 higher on some of the high dressing fleshy cows.
