Compared to last week, steer and heifer calves under 700 lbs. sold steady to 4.00 higher. Feeder calves over 700 lbs. were not well tested however undertones were steady to firm. Demand was good on a moderate supply. Receipts were more typical than last week with the offering consisting of mostly lightweight stocker and feeder calves. The largest draft of the day was 76 head of 701 lb. heifers which brought 242.50/cwt.
