Compared to last week, steer calves traded 4.00-8.00 lower with spots 10.00 lower. Heifer calves traded steady to 4.00 lower. Demand was light early and improved throughout the day on a moderate supply. Quality was below average with an abundance of plain, short-weaned calves and bull calves in the offering. Calves weaned 45 days or more were in demand with unweaned or short-weaned calves having a hard time finding a new home.
