Compared to last week the only comparable weights of steers were 600 to 700 lbs. steady to 4.00 higher. The only weights of heifers were the 650 to 700 lbs. that were steady from last week. Todays offering consisted of small lots with a couple of load lots.. Buyer demand was good for todays offering especially the lighter weight steers and heifers. Most feeders were n light to moderate flesh condition.
