Nice offering of weaned and bawling spring calves with nearly all the calves having received fall vaccinations. Compared to last week all weights of steers and heifers sold sharply higher. Demand was very good from the buyers in the crowd and on the internet that participated in the active market.

Steers 500–600 lb: high $521.41, low $412.85, median $496.19 across 13 sales. Sales under 10 head in this class are excluded, so a thin day cannot swing the median or the ranking.
