As filed

Compared to last week; steer and heifer calves traded mostly steady with a few instances lower later in the day. A large run this week with some much needed moisture in the area. A small offering of yearling steers and heifers with all weights selling higher than last week. A nice offering today with the majority of the sale being package trade.
