As filed

Compared to last week, calves weaned 45 days plus with a round or 2 of shots sold with a higher undertone while those coming in just off the cow, shorter weaned or fleshy calves sold with a steady to lower undertone. The price ranges got pretty wide as demand was light to moderate for those higher health risk calves, but moderate to good for the calves on a health program. Supply was moderate. The weather and the feeder cattle board were in much better shape this week with sunshine and big gains Thursday. Slaughter cows sold steady to 5.00 higher, making up last weeks losses.
