Compared to the previous feeder calf auction just one week ago ( Jan 16 ) , steer calves 400 - 500 lb were 6.00 to 11.00 higher, 600 - 700 feeder steers were fully steady to 15.00 higher. Light weight heifer trade saw calves under 650 lb. 10.00 to 12.00 higher, seven weight heifers 10.00 higher. Yearling cattle trade called fully steady. Demand was very good for today's moderate supply of home raised, green, LTW'd and double vaccinated feeder calves. Trade very active.
