Compared to last week steer calves sold steady to 5.00 lower and heifer calves sold 2.00-10.00 lower except 450-500 lbs heifers selling 5.00 higher. Nearly all consignments had received at least one round of fall preconditioning shots. Demand was moderate to very good from the buyers in the crowd and on the internet who were being selective with their bidding and buying activity.
