*CLOSE* Compared to last week, steer calves under 500 lbs sold steady to 3.00 lower while steer calves over 500 lbs sold 3.00 to 5.00 lower. Heifer calves sold 2.00 to 6.00 lower. No recent price comparison on yearling steers and heifers. Demand moderate as the supply is calves that are carrying a wide variation of flesh so far. Bulk of the supply today was calves weighing 450-650 lbs.
