Compared to two weeks ago: Steer and heifer calves under 600 lbs firm to 2.00 higher in a limited test. Feeder steers and heifers over 600 lbs 3.00 to 5.00 higher. Slaughter cows and bulls steady. Much of the trade area received needed rainfall on the week, however triple digit temperatures continue in the forecast for the next several days and drought conditions remain a problem. Trade was active on good demand.
