Compared to the feeder calf auction just one week ago, 400 - 500 lb steer calves were steady to 18.00 higher, with 600 - 700 lb calves 3.00 to 22.00 higher. Heifer trade today saw 500 - 600 lb calves sharply higher by 13.00 to 20.00. Quality ran deep on the offering today of large runs of home raised and double vaccinated feeder calves. Many that were available were just off the cow. Demand was very good for the moderate supply. The next scheduled feeder auction is Nov 20th
