Compared to two weeks ago: Mostly yearlings today, steers 700 lbs and up were 7.00 -9.00 dollars higher. Heifers sold on a higher undertone today. Most were load lots. Demand was good. The next feeder cattle auction will be June 11th, expecting either side of 4000 head , a mix of yearlings and calves, starting at 8:30 am. It will also be MLM BBQ special auction.
