Compared to Last week: Steer and heifer calves under 600 lbs. 1.00-3.00 lower, feeders over 600 lbs. steady to 2.00 higher. Trade moderate to active, demand moderate on calves, good on feeders. Recent rains and muddy conditions limiting demand on lighter weight offerings. Slaughter cows 3.00 lower, bulls 3.00 higher though quality more attractive.
