As filed

Compared to last week; steer calves traded unevenly steady with a few instances 2.00 higher on load lots. Not enough receipts for a trend on yearling steers. Heifer calves traded 2.00 to 4.00 higher. Yearling heifers following the same trend at 5.00 to 7.00 higher. High demand for all natural program heifers. Large run today with an active market and still a high demand for cattle with fall and spring shots for bawling calves.
