Heifers under 500 lbs sold with a sharply higher undertone, 500-600 lbs 5.00-7.00 higher and heifers over 600 lbs traded steady. Demand was good for a heavy supply despite the extreme cold on its way and it was obvious that some buyers were ready to procure grass cattle this week. Those cattle that fit the bill to graze sold with very good demand. The feeder offering was made up of near 54 percent steers and bulls and 46 percent heifers with 57 percent over 600 lbs. Cows and bulls totaled 10 percent of the offering. Slaughter cows sold 3.00-5.00 higher and slaughter bulls sold 5.00-6.00 higher.
