Reporter comment USDA

As filed

Compared to last week; no test on yearling steers and only test on a yearling heifers were on a 900-950 lb heifer traded 7.00 higher. Steer and heifer calves traded 5.00 to 10.00 higher. A nice offering with a few load lots but mainly partial loads and package trade. Many buyers paying a more for calves with spring and falls shots. Half of the offering today of bawling calves were carrying both spring and fall shots. A few internet buyers on partial and load lots but most of the bidding coming from the seats. Sale again Wednesday.
