Compared to last week, steer calves sold steady to 6.00 lower with the un-weaned or short weaned calves making up a larger portion of the offering while the yearling cattle over 600 lbs sold steady. Heifers sold steady to 5.00 lower. Demand was moderate, best for those weaned at least 45 days with the health risk on the calves increasing each week now as we are in October and the forecast including 45 degree temperature swings. Supply was moderate. Slaughter cows sold 4.00-8.00 lower, pressured by large number of cows moving both seasonally and due to continued dry conditions.
