Steer calves sold 1.00-5.00 lower. Heifer calves steady to 3.00 higher. Demand moderate to good for calves. More new crop or un-weaned calves beginning to make their way to the market. Several nice cattle off grass made their way to auction this week and this reflected with market toppers on some reports, however quality has dropped off indicating the summer grass run is close to being done. The late winter storm extended grass season this year as many parts of the state remain very green for late July. Summers heat is back though and that green grass will quickly turn to brown. Slaughter cows sold 1.00-5.00 lower, Breaker cows at the most decline. Slaughter bulls sold steady to 2.00 lower. Packer demand moderate.Supply included: 92% Feeder Cattle (59% Steers, 0% Dairy Steers, 37% Heifers, 4% Bulls, 0% Dairy Heifers); 6% Slaughter Cattle (90% Cows, 10% Bulls); 1% Replacement Cattle (82% Bred Cows, 1% Bred Heifers, 16% Cow-Calf Pairs). Feeder cattle supply over 600 lbs was 71%.
