As filed

Compared to last week, and based on a lighter test this week, feeder heifers weighing up to 450 lbs. sold 25.00 to 45.00 higher with those weighing over 450 lbs. 5.00 higher. Feeder bulls sold unevenly steady with no comparisons available for feeder steers due to limited comparable receipts. Regarding slaughter classes- breaker cows sold 16.00 lower and bulls mostly steady, with no comparisons available for boning and lean cows due to limited comparable receipts. Light demand was noted for slaughter cattle.
