Compared to last week, steer calves fully steady, yearling steers steady, heifers under 700 lbs steady to 3.00 higher, heifers over 700 lbs steady. Demand moderate to mostly good, supply moderate to heavy. The recent rain showers beneficial for grain crops and to rejuvenate pastures. A bigger offering than expected as Producers take advantage of the cooler weather to gather and transport cattle with minimal stress.
