As filed

Compared to last week: Slaughter steers and heifers 5.00 to 7.00 lower, Holstein steers 5.00 lower. Light demand for this very large offering of high quality grading, very attractive steers and heifers. Packer buyers much more reserved in their pursuit of fat cattle this week, two way buyers stepped in and bought market ready cattle that looked to be a value. Many long strings with most offered in full load lots. Weighing conditions were attractive for buyers as most cattle were hauled in over night, estimated dressed cost 165.00-170.00. Slaughter cows 4.00 to 8.00 lower, bulls steady to 4.00 lower.

Traditional slaughter weight lambs were 6.00 to 8.00 higher, except 100-110 lbs 10.00 to 15.00 higher, non traditional slaughter weights sold sharply higher. Feeder lambs not tested. Slaughter ewes sold mixed, Good 2-3 ewes and Cull 1 10.00 to 15.00 higher, while Good 4-5 and Utility mostly steady. Very good demand for light weight slaughter lambs, good demand for traditional weight. Very good demand for slaughter ewes, moderate to good demand for bred ewes.
