Compared to two weeks ago, steers sold steady to 3.00 higher except for 500-600 lbs steers selling 5.00 lower, heifers sold 2.00 to 5.00 higher except 500-600 lbs heifers selling steady to 2.00 lower. Nice run of bawling calves and yearlings on offer. Demand was good from the buyers in the crowd with internet activity noticed.
