As filed

Compared to last week; steer calves sold unevenly steady with the exception of steer calves weighing over 650 lbs which sold 3.00 to 8.00 higher. Heifer calves also traded unevenly steady with the exception of a 650 lb heifer trading 2.00 higher. Nice offering this week of long strings of reputation feeder cattle. Very active market.
