As filed

Compared to last week: Steer and heifer calves not well tested for comparison. Yearling feeder steers 6.00 to 8.00 higher, yearling feeder heifers 2.00 to 4.00 higher. Only moderate demand for this limited offering of calves, very good demand for this large offering of yearlings. This week's calf consignments were mostly small packages that didn't garner a lot of interest, there were a couple longer strings of high quality, fully preconditioned calves that sold on a fairly active market. The yearling market was very active as there were several long strings of steers and heifers offered in multiple load lots, flesh condition was light to moderate plus. There are plenty of buyers at the auction that want to feed some yearlings which results in a very fast paced sale. Slaughter cows steady to 1.00 higher, bulls steady.
