Nice offering of yearlings along with weaned fall calves on offer with packages of bawling calves mixed in the run. Compared to last week steers over 600 lbs sold steady to 5.00 higher and heifers over 500 lbs sold steady to 10.00 higher. Demand was good from the buyers in the crowd and on the internet.

Heifers 500–600 lb: high $470.00, low $346.15, median $425.15 across 21 sales. Sales under 10 head in this class are excluded, so a thin day cannot swing the median or the ranking.
