Compared to last week, steer calves under 600 lbs traded 3.00-6.00 higher with heavier weights steady to 5.00 lower. Heifer calves under 600 lbs traded steady to 3.00 higher with heavier weights not well tested. Demand was light early but improved throughout the day as the futures board showed positive gains. The supply of calves was moderate while the supply of feeders and yearlings was light with only 23 percent of the offering weighing over 600 lbs.
