Compared to last month's special feeder sale, steer calves under 600 lbs traded 2.00-5.00 higher with heavier weights steady to 3.00 lower. Heifer calves under 600 lbs traded 5.00-10.00 higher with heavier weights steady to 3.00 higher. Demand was very good on a heavy supply of value added calves. The quality of the offering was above average with weaned and vaccinated calves sold in medium and large size drafts.
