Compared to last week: Weaned steer and heifer calves with at least two rounds of shots traded mostly 3.00 to 6.00 higher. Unweaned calves with no vaccinations or only one round traded 10.00 to 15.00 lower, as significant temperature fluctuations and changing weather conditions continue to negatively impact calf health and buyer confidence. Not enough comparable sales on yearling steers or heifers for a market trend but a higher undertone was noted, with the board trading in the green the last two days. Trading activity was active on moderate to good buyer demand. Slaughter cows and bulls traded 1.00 higher. Sorghum harvest is wrapping up and recent rains have been beneficial for recently planted winter wheat.
