Compared to last week, steer and heifer calves traded unevenly steady from 2.00 lower to 2.00 higher with spots 5.00 higher. Yearling steers and heifers traded 3.00-4.00 higher. Demand was good on a very heavy supply. Producers took advantage of the warmer and drier weather to bring cattle to town in record numbers.
