As filed

Compared to last week; steer calves traded steady to 6.00 lower. Heifer calves traded 2.00 to 5.00 higher. A nice offering today with also a nice selection of yearling steers and heifers. A very active market once again this week with mainly all package trade throughout the day. Several buyers in the seats and a very active internet throughout the day. Sale again next Wednesday.
