Compared to last week, yearling steers and heifers sold steady to 5.00 higher while steer and heifer calves sold 10.00 to 20.00 higher. Boning utility slaughter cows sold steady to 3.00 higher while Breaker and Lean utility sold 9.00 lower. Load size, quality and condition were large contributor to buyers discretion today. Good demand for moderate supply.
