Compared to last week: Slaughter steers, heifers and Holsteins to few to make a meaningful comparison. In a very light test this week due to bitter cold and blowing snow on Tuesday fat cattle sold with higher undertones. Demand for this nice light offering of slaughter cattle was good. CME Live Cattle down while corn continues to climb higher. Slaughter cows steady to 1.00 higher. Slaughter bulls to few to make a meaningful comparison.

Traditional slaughter weight sheep to few to make a meaningful comparison. Slaughter ewes to few to make a meaningful comparison. Very light auction due to cold and snow on Tuesday.
