Rugby Livestock owner Cliff Mattson says demand for feeder calves should pick up now that we’re past the holidays and recent winter weather. “A lot of those feedlots down south have gotten hammered with snow.” Mattson is disappointed prices aren’t better. “We’re looking at $100 a calf or better than what we got a year ago, but supplementing corn or grain is expensive so that’s cutting into profits more than I’d like to see.”
