Compared to last week: To few cattle to make a meaningful call on the market.

Traditional weight slaughter lambs 10.00 to 20.00 higher. Demand for this eye appealing offering was good. 70 lbs - 90 lbs sold steady this week. Slaughter ewes sold 5.00 to 10.00 lower. The heat this week is making it hard for livestock producers to keep livestock comfortable.
