Compare to last week, steer and heifer calves under 700 lbs. traded steady to 4.00 lower while heavier weight steers and heifers traded steady to 3.00 higher. Demand was moderate on lighter weight stocker calves and good on heavier weight feeder calves. The supply was moderate. A cool front moving across the area brought showers which were too little and too late to provide much benefit to pastures. With night time temperatures projected in the 40's, demand was light for unweaned or short-weaned calves.

Head, weight ranges, average weights and price ranges are exactly as USDA AMS filed them — nothing recomputed, nothing rounded — in USDA's own reporting structure. This is RaisedBeef's rendering of that data, not a copy of USDA's document.
