As filed

Compared to last week: Slaughter steers and heifers 2.00 to 3.00 lower, Holstein steers scarce. Demand only moderate for this nice offering of very attractive, high quality grading steers and heifers. Many full loads and multiple load lots of offer, but with the Live Cattle futures contracts falling hard the first two days of the week packer buyers were determined to buy cattle cheaper. Weighing condition mostly average as there were a lot of cattle hauled in overnight and hides are fairly clean, overall. Estimated dressed cost ranged from 290.00-293.00. Slaughter cows 1.00 to 4.00 lower. Bulls mostly steady.

Slaughter lambs steady to 1.00 higher, non-traditional weight lambs sold with firm undertones. Slaughter ewes mostly steady, with much better demand from buyers to take ewes back to the country as those ewes in good condition sell on a much more active market.
