Compared to last week: Choice slaughter steers were 1.00-3.00 lower. Steers with no implants remaining steady. Choice slaughter heifers were 1.00-3.00 lower with limited numbers. Not enough dairy steers or dairy beef cross steers last week for comparison. Many load lots of steers, heifers, and dairy beef cross steers in the offering today. Demand was good throughout the sale, both in the stands and on the internet. Slaughter cows: Breaker and Boner cows are steady. Lean cows steady to 1.00 lower. Bulls steady this week.

Slaughter lambs: Lambs 50-60 lbs too light a test last week for comparison. Lambs 70-80 lbs mostly 23.00-26.00 lower. Lambs over 100 lbs were 5.00-7.00 lower with limited numbers last week. Slaughter ewes 4.00-5.00 lower.
