Compared to last week: Steer and heifer calves traded mostly 5.00 to 10.00 higher, with instances of up to 15.00 to 20.00 higher on weaned calves with at least two rounds of shots. Not enough comparable sales on feeder steers and heifers due to last weeks light test but a higher undertone was noted. Quality was mostly attractive with several nice bunches of calves on offer. Slaughter cows and bulls too lightly tested last week for a market test but a lower undertone was noted. Trading activity was active on very good buyer demand.
