As filed

Compared to last Monday; steer and heifer calves carrying spring and fall shots traded 3.00 to 7.00 higher. Steer and heifer calves just carrying spring shots traded 5.00 to 7.00 lower. Buyers putting a premium on calves this week that have been double vaccinated. A nice offering overall with just part loads and package trade. Active bidding from the seats and just a few buyers on the internet. Next week is Bred Cow Special on Monday.
