Compared to last week, a few consignments of long weaned cattle sold steady to 5.00 lower but the majority of the offering was un-weaned or short weaned calves that were uneven in quality and found only light to moderate demand and sold with a lower undertone. The longer weaned yearlings were much more sought after and saw moderate to good demand. With the large temperature drop forecast for the weekend and the usual difficulty in straightening out calves this time of year, some buyers are just unwilling to take on the health risk on top of dry conditions which limits the demand for the calves. Several of the calves offered came off of whole herd dispersals that will be offered this weekend at the monthly cow sale. Slaughter cows sold steady to 3.00 lower.
