Still have nice big strings of cattle coming off grass. Compared to last week steers 650 to 800 lbs sold steady to 1.00 higher and 800 to 1000 lb steers sold 2.00 to 3.00 lower. 650 to 800 lb heifers sold 1.00 to 2.00 higher and 800 to 850 lb heifers sold steady. The receipts were moderate to heavy and the demand was good.
