Compared to the sale two weeks ago: Steers 650 lbs 3.00 higher, 800 lbs 1.00 higher, 900 lbs steady to 4.00 lower with much lower head count this week. Heifers 550 lbs 12.00 to sharply higher, 700 lbs 1.00-2.00 higher, 850-900 lbs 3.00-6.00 higher. Slaughter cows: Breaker cows 1.00-2.00 higher. Boner cows 1.00 higher. Not enough lean cows for comparison. Limited number of bulls, no comparison.

Multiple loads of both calves and yearlings, along with many smaller strings in the offering today. Demand was good throughout the sale, especially on load lots and light cattle as the supply dwindles.
