Compared to last week steer calves 450-650 lbs sold steady to 15.00 higher and heifer calves 400-650 lbs sold 10.00-20.00 lower except flat 500 lbs heifers selling steady to 10.00 higher. Demand was moderate to good from the crowd of buyers in the seats with internet activity noticed. Nice offering of bawling spring calves on offer most of which had received fall vaccinations selling in packages and a few load lots. Along with packages that received only spring vaccinations and some with no vaccinations at all selling at a discount with light buyer participation.
