Compared to last week: Trade activity and demand moderate to good. Today's run comprised of calves weaned 14-60 days, most pre-conditioned with vaccination programs ranging from shots just at springtime to spring/fall shots. Feeder steers under 500 lbs mostly 1.00 to 2.00 lower, 500-600 lbs mostly 3.00 to 4.00 higher and over 600 lbs 3.00 to 5.00 lower with instances of 8.00 to 10.00 lower. Feeder heifers across all weight classes were mostly 2.00 to 4.00 higher on a light test. The next available report will be Friday, November 1, 2019.
