Reporter comment USDA

As filed

Compared to last week, steer calves sold mostly steady while heifers calves sold 5.00-10.00 higher and a nice offering of yearlings sold 2.00-6.00 higher. Demand was good to very good for yearlings and calves on a moderate supply. The calf run consisted of mostly new crops but the discounts for un-weaned calves or those carrying some flesh was minimal with favorable market conditions and buyers eager to own cattle. Slaughter cows and bulls sold steady to 2.00 higher.
