Superior Livestock- February 2nd Video Auction

Superior Livestock Auction – Video Auction February 2, 2023

Superior Livestock Auction hosted their video auction live on February 2^nd from the Superior Livestock Auction Studio in Hudson Oaks, Texas. Cattle producers offered over 33,966 head of calves & yearlings from 25 states for this auction. Cattle were sold on contract to deliver immediately through October 2023. Superior Livestock went live with the auction at 8 a.m. CT. The February 2^ndVideo Auction was broadcast in HD on SLA-TV, Dish Network Ch. 997 and streamed on Superior Livestock Auction’s Click to Bid website. Thursday’s offering was met with much anticipation since the weather across the country slowed much of the trade down earlier in the week; optimism continues to grow especially in the commodity cattle.

Regions 3/4/5/6 Feeder Steers were well received at fully steady prices with the most recent auction. Feeder Heifers saw a higher trend moving out at $3 to $7 dollars higher. Regions 1/2 Feeder Steers were in light test but also received at fully steady prices. Program Feeders found buyers being very selective and taking into account cost of gains. Beef Dairy Crosses were well received at fully steady prices compared to last test. Regions 1/2 Weaned Calves were in short supply and saw steady prices. Regions 3/4/5/6 Weaned Calves were again met with higher prices on weights under 625 pounds moving out at $6 to $12 higher.
