Compared to last week: Steer calves under 600 lbs. 1.00-4.00 lower though weighing conditions not as attractive and fewer load lots available. Feeders over 600 lbs. steady to 2.00 higher. Heifer calves under 600 lbs. 2.00 higher, feeders over 600 lbs. 1.00 higher. Slaughter cows 1.00 higher, bulls 1.00-2.00 higher though quality and weighing conditions more attractive.
