Today was the Annual All Yearling Special Sale at the Bloomfield Auction. 
Compared to the sale one week ago, steers and heifers both sold with a higher 
undertone noted, although not well compared. Demand was very good today and 
included internet bidding. Supply was heavy and included mostly seven- and 
eight-weight steers and heifers and several load lots. Four consignors brought 
nearly 700 head.
