As filed

Compared to last week, steer calves traded 3.00-6.00 lower while feeder steers traded 5.00 higher with Yearling trading steady. Heifer calves traded steady to 3.00 lower with feeder and yearling heifers not well tested. Demand was good on 7 and 8 weight feeders and light on bawling calves. The supply was heavy and included another 4 pot-load draft of 9 weight steers. Steers averaged 670 lbs at $139.93/cwt while heifers averaged 570 lbs at $128.38/cwt. Cooler temperatures and frost across the area has slowed the growth of grass and has brought more calves to town.
