Compared to a week ago, steer calves traded uneven from 4.00 lower to 3.00 higher while yearling steers traded steady. Heifer calves traded steady to 3.00 lower with yearling heifers not well tested. Demand was moderate on a moderate supply. The offering was not as attractive as last week's and was presented in smaller packages. Winter weather across the area as well as firearms deer season in Arkansas and Missouri kept receipts moderate. Feeder Cattle Futures traded lower and Live Cattle Futures traded mixed as Corn Futures traded higher.
