October 22, 2024, 2,305hd; Last Week,2,399 hd; 1,040 a year ago Compared to last week, steers and heifers sold uneven with the majority of steers selling steady to 5.00 lower but the calves weighing 500-600 lbs. sold 5.00-15.00 lower with few weaned longer than 30 days. Heifer calves that were weaned saw just the opposite with better demand than their brothers and sold 5.00-10.00 higher with spots up to 15.00 higher while the yearlings sold steady. The un-weaned or shorter weaned calves and those carrying flesh saw sharp discounts when compared to the long weaned calves and yearlings. Demand was moderate to good, but the un-weaned calves saw light to moderate demand with a big cold front coming through with some moisture the middle part of the week to create a pretty good recipe for a sick calf. Supply was moderate. Slaughter cows & bulls sold $3-$5 lower. Â .Office (816) 597-3331, Rick (816) 258-3421, Jeremy (816) 716-9288, and Jared (816) 878-5229.
