Compared to two weeks ago, todays sale was made up of mostly seven and eight weight steers that sold higher compared to a lighter test. Heifers were mostly six weight cattle that sold 7.00 higher. Supply was moderate to heavy today and included several load lots of yearling cattle. Demand was good.
