Compared to last week: Trade activity and demand good on steers and heifers, very good on slaughter cows and bulls. Feeder steers an heifers too lightly tested from the prior week for an accurate trend. Baby calves 170-245 lbs sold for $425.00-$550.00 per head, 100-160 lbs $160.00-$250.00 per head, and under 100 lbs $110.00-$160.00. Feeder dairy heifers over 900 lbs sold 1.00 to 7.00 higher. Average dressing slaughter cows and bulls sold mostly 2.00 to 4.00 higher. Cow/calf pairs sold firm with no comparable trades from the prior week. The next available report will be Thursday, June 16, 2022.
