Compared to last week, steer and heifer calves traded steady to 5.00 higher. There were too few yearlings last week for an adequate comparison; however undertones were steady to firm. Demand was good on a moderate supply. Included in the supply was a four load draft of 220 head of 931 lbs steers which brought 152.25. This was 7.25 higher than the last comparable offering of 4 weeks ago. Pasture conditions continue to vary, depending on where the scattered showers have fallen, which has resulted in some producers selling earlier than normal while others are taking home long-time weaned calves for grazing.
