Compared to last week, steer calves traded steady to 6.00 lower while heifer calves traded steady to 2.00 higher. Yearling steers traded 2.00-4.00 higher while yearling heifers were not well tested. Demand was good on a light supply of peewee calves and a moderate supply of stocker and feeder calves. The cattle boards opened the week with good gains while the corn board lost some ground, making heavier weight feeders more attractive to buyers. Crowds were light ringside as a string of dry days in the forecast have producers scrambling to get some hay down and in the barn.
