As filed

Compared to last week steer calves 450-750 lbs sold steady to 5.00 higher except for 600-650 lbs steer calves selling steady to 4.00 lower. All weights of heifer calves sold steady to as much as 20.00 lower. Demand was moderate to good from the buyers in the crowd with internet activity noticed. The bulk of the calves were long time weaned and fall vaccinated with the balance on bawling calves the majority of which had received fall vaccinations.
