Reporter comment USDA

As filed

No trend this week as there was not a calf special last Monday but a very active market with higher prices noted. A nice offering of calves right off the cow and a few weaned calves. A few load lots sold total but mostly consisted of smaller lots with mainly preconditioned calves. Buyers still paying a premium for preconditioned over calves that just had spring shots. This was the last calf special of the fall so now all Monday sales will be bred cow specials.
