Compared to last week: Steer calves under 600 lbs. 5.00 lower on limited comparable quotes but weighing conditions not as attractive with a higher percentage of fleshy unweaned offerings. Feeders and calves over 600 lbs. 2.00-3.00 higher. Heifer calves under 600 lbs. mostly 1.00 lower, feeders over 600 lbs. steady to 2.00 higher. Slaughter cows mostly 2.00 lower, bulls 2.00 lower on very limited offerings.
