Compared to last week: Feeder steers traded mostly steady to 2.00 higher. Feeder heifers traded mostly 2.00 to 4.00 lower on limited comparable sales. Steer and heifer calves too lightly tested for a market trend but a lower undertone was noted. Slaughter cows and bulls traded mostly steady on a light test. Quality was mostly attractive with several load lots of yearlings off the short wheat and smaller packages of long weaned calves on offer. Hotter than average temperatures accompanied by high winds have expanded the extreme to exceptional drought in the Northern Panhandle, with the rest of the Panhandle in the moderate to severe drought categories. As a result, wheat cattle have started moving off of pastures earlier than normal due to the lack of precipitation in the region.
