Compared to the feeder calf / yearling auction 2 weeks ago, 500 - 600 lb steer calves were 10.00 to 18.00 higher, 600 - 700 lb were 15.00 higher and yearling steers were 7.00 to 12.00 higher. Heifer trade today saw light weight 400 - 500 lb calves 7.00 to 10.00 higher, 600 - 700 lb 8.00 to 11.00 higher and yearling heifers were 12.00 to 15.00 higher. Available in today's light offering were many smaller packages of green, weaned out and double vaccinated quality feeder calves. Internet bidding was active throughout the auction. Demand was very good.
