As filed

Compared to last week, steer calves sold unevenly steady. Heifers calves sold steady to 3.00 higher. Yearling heifers sold 2.00 higher. Demand was good for yearlings with moderate to good demand for calves. Buyers preferred calves with precondition shots over spring time vaccinations. Receipts shorten on Wednesday due to slick roads in the trade area from the light dusting of snow.
