Compared to the sale two weeks ago, steers sold 10.00 to 12.00 higher and made up of mostly five and seven weight cattle. Heifers sold sharply higher undertone on a lighter test. Some of the cattle exhibited a moderate amount of mud due to the recent thawing and rain in the region. Supply was moderate today that included a few load lots of yearling cattle. Demand was good.
