Reporter comment USDA

As filed

Compared to last week, steer calves under 550 lbs sold 3.00-5.00 higher and a light test of heavier weights sold steady. Heifer calves under 550 lbs sold sold steady and heavier weights steady to 4.00 lower. Demand was moderate to good, best for the grazing calves. Once again this week, several of the higher quality calves were un-weaned but still saw good demand. Supply was moderate to heavy. Some extremely nice weather allowed cattle to make their way to town and farmers have been able to do some fieldwork. Slaughter cows sold mostly steady.
