As filed

Compared to last week, steers and heifers sold uneven with the majority of steers selling steady to 5.00 lower but the calves weighing 500-600 lbs sold 5.00-15.00 lower with few weaned longer than 30 days. Heifer calves that were weaned saw just the opposite with better demand than their brothers and sold 5.00-10.00 higher with spots up to 15.00 higher while the yearlings sold steady. The un-weaned or shorter weaned calves and those carrying flesh saw sharp discounts when compared to the long weaned calves and yearlings. Demand was moderate to good, but the un-weaned calves saw light to moderate demand with a big cold front coming through with some moisture the middle part of the week to create a pretty good recipe for a sick calf. Supply was moderate. Slaughter cows sold 5.00-7.00 lower when compared to the last reported cow market two weeks ago.
