Compared to last week, steer calves under 600 lbs. traded unevenly steady while heavier weight steers traded 3.00-4.00 higher. Heifer calves traded steady to 3.00 higher. Demand was good, especially on turnout calves. The supply was moderate as early morning rains moved across the area. The quality was average at best with several mixed packages and bull calves in the offering.
