Compared to last week steer calves under 600 lbs sold steady to 4.00 higher and heifer calves under 550 lbs sold unevenly from 8.00 higher to 8.00 lower. Demand was moderate to very good from the buyers in the crowd with internet activity noticed. Mostly all the calves had received their preconditioning shots.
