Compared to last week: A lower undertone was noted on steers up to 900 lbs. Steers 900-950 lbs. were steady, steers 1050-1100 lbs. sold 3.00 lower. Heifers 800-1000 lbs. were unevenly steady. Demand was good, with many large load lots in todays offering. The next feeder cattle auction will be July 14th, expecting 3000 head of feeders, starting at 8:30 am.
