Compared to last week, steer and heifer calves over 700 lbs. were steady to 3.00 higher. Calves under 700 lbs. were unevenly steady from 4.00 lower to 4.00 higher with most of the gain on 5 and 6 weight calves. Demand was good on a very light supply. The largest draft of the day was 181 head of 793 lb. heifers which sold for 342.00/cwt. Heat advisories and heat warnings across the service area has made it difficult for producers and animals to be transported with most of the receipts being brought in overnight or early morning.
