Compared to last week steer calves traded 3.00-6.00 higher while heifers calves traded steady to 3.00 higher. Demand was good on a light supply. Most weights were not well tested with few peewee and yearling calves in the offering. Market activity was moderate and included more bull calves than usual. Scattered frost this past weekend has increased concerns about how long calves have been weaned and their vaccination record.
