As filed

Compared to the last auction two weeks ago, steer calves under 650 lbs and heifer calves under 600 lbs sold 10.00-20.00 higher, with 5 weight steers and heifers selling as much as 25.00 higher, 850-950 lb steers traded 13.00-14.00 higher on comparable pot loads with all other yearling steers over 700 lbs and heifers over 600 lb selling with a sharply higher undertone on limited comparisons. Demand was good to very good on a very heavy offering of feeders. Lots of good quality calves and yearlings selling in part loads, several pot loads, and large groups all selling on a very active market as buyers were aggressive to own cattle. A very large offering this week (Callaway's largest sale) as dry conditions continue on both sides of I-70 with feeder cattle market surging higher is giving producers a good reason to bring feeders to the auction. The message sent last week in the fed cattle market saw the Northern Plains reaching 188.00 with late sales reaching 190.00 on Friday record highs for the region. Slaughter cows sold 3.00-6.00 higher.
