Compared to the last special three weeks ago, a very limited comparison with this week's much larger offering, especially of yearlings and a much larger consignments of unweaned calves. Overall the undertone is lower especially on yearling steers and calves, but a consignment of 100 hd of 1071 lb heifers sold with very good demand. The market held up very well despite the Feeder Cattle contracts ending the week on Friday in a free fall with the front 4 months down 4.82 to 7.32, after Tuesday's limit down move of 9.25. Front end quality calves are still sought after as are yearlings. Several consignments of unweaned calves overall were good quality but the variance of quality, planier kinds, flesh, vaccination programs all play in the demand for them. Stick out sale included the 100 hd of 1071 lb heifers at 273.00 and 45 hd of lighter sisters weighing 941 lbs at 291.50. Slaughter cows sold 3.00-8.00 lower with slaughter steers and heifers trading with a lower undertone on a light offering. Supply included: 88% Feeder Cattle (46% Steers, 45% Heifers, 9% Bulls); 12% Slaughter Cattle (10% Steers, 14% Heifers, 67% Cows, 10% Bulls). Feeder cattle supply over 600 lbs was 64%.
