Compared to last week: Slaughter steers Choice 2-3 1.00 to 2.00 higher, Choice 3-4 2.00 to 3.00 lower, heifers steady to 2.00 lower. Holsteins steady to 1.00 higher. Demand for this nice offering of cattle was moderate. Some cattle were carrying more tag than we've seen in the past few weeks. Black hided continue to be in biggest demand creating wide price gaps. CME Live Cattle and Corn both up today. Slaughter cows 3.00 to 5.00 higher. Slaughter bulls 1.00 to 2.00 higher.

Traditional slaughter weight lambs 2.00 to 4.00 higher. Demand for this light offering of nice sheep was moderate. Slaughter ewes 10.00 to 20.00 lower.
