Compared to the last reported auction steers over 600 lbs sold steady to 10.00 higher and heifers over 600 lbs sold steady to 5.00 lower. Demand was good from the buyers in the crowd with internet bidding and buying noticed. The bulk of the run was long time weaned and vaccinated calves with the balance on bawling calves the majority of which had received their fall vaccinations.
