As filed

Compared with last week 500 to 700 lbs steers traded unevenly steady and no comparable offerings for heifers. Demand was good with several buyers and high internet bidding. After several days of warm weather in the area, this week, frosty nights and a light covering of snow. Next Auction Date Dec 22nd Special Weigh Up Auction and Dec 23rd Holiday Special Bred Cow Auction
