Steer calves sold steady to $2 lower, heifer calves steady to $3 lower, and the yearling steers and heifers were steady to $1.50 lower at Torrington auctions.

Direct trade was slow. Compared to last week feeder steers sold steady, heifers were $2 higher on few comparable weights. Demand was light. The region received moderate to heavy snow slowing livestock movement.
