Compared to the feeder cattle auction one week ago, 400 - 500 lb new crop spring steer calves were fully steady to 5.00 higher with 500 - 600 lb calves 2.00 to 6.00 higher. Heifer trade saw 600 - 700 lb calves 2.00 to 4.00 higher. No comparison stated today on yearling cattle trade considering the smaller offering. Today's offering of green new crop calves were mostly "weaned", double vaccinated and home raised. Demand was very good for today's moderate supply. Trade was active.
