Compared to last week: Slaughter steers and heifers mostly steady. Good
demand for steers and heifers. A lighter offering, however there were some
long strings, loads and multiple load lots of very eye appealing, high quality
grading steers and heifers. The market was fairly active with all packer
buyers participating. 3 full loads of steers, 4 full loads of heifers, balance
part loads and stock trailer loads.
Slaughter lambs unevenly steady. Feeder lambs sold with higher undertones.
Slaughter ewes 10.00 to 15.00 lower. Good demand for all weights of slaughter
lambs, Very good demand for the light fleshed feeder lambs offered. Good
demand for slaughter ewes. The slaughter lamb market was rather active,
slaughter ewe market was not as active as it has been in recent weeks as the
supply of ewes has been pretty heavy.
