As filed

Compared to last week: Fed steers and heifers 3.00 to 5.00 higher. Holsteins to few to make a meaningful comparison. Demand for this eye appealing offering of fed cattle was good. No real premium shown for non implant and program cattle. Black hided cattle in biggest demand creating wider price gaps. Several semi loads of cattle sold today. Estimated dressed cost 294.00 - 302.00. Slaughter cows 3.00 to 6.00 higher. Bulls 2.00 to 7.00 higher.

Traditional weight slaughter lambs 9.00 to 10.00 higher. Demand for this large offering of eye catching sheep was good. We are seeing more traditional slaughter weight lambs offered for sale. 70 lbs - 90 lbs lambs sold with lower undertones. The condition of the fleece determines how far buyers push to get lambs bought. Slaughter ewes sold steady.
