Compared to last week, steer and heifer calves under 600 lbs sold 10.00 to 15.00 higher. Feeder steers 600-800 lbs sold unevenly steady, while those over 800 lbs sold 1.00 to 3.00 higher. 6-weight heifers were unevenly steady on a light test when comparing them to last week's large receipts. Heifers over 700 lbs sold 1.00 to 4.00 higher. Slaughter cows and bulls sold 8.00 to 11.00 higher. Demand was good to very good on moderate supply. Best demand on cattle ready to turn out on wheat.
