Compared to last week, feeder steers and heifers sold steady while steer and heifer calves sold steady to 5.00 higher, with most of the gain on heifer calves. Demand was good on a light to moderate supply. There was better demand for peewee calves as those backgrounders, who received rain, are looking for something to put on their greener pastures. Both Live and Feeder Cattle Futures showed good gains today as Corn Futures traded lower.

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.
