Steer calves under 500 lbs steady to 3.00 lower, 500 to 600 lbs 3.00 to 5.00 higher, over 600 lbs steady to 3.00 lower decline on weights 600 to 650 lbs and 700 to 800 lbs. Heifer calves 300 to 400 lbs 3.00 to 5.00 higher, 400 to 450 lbs 3.00 to 5.00 lower, over 450 lbs steady to 2.00 lower decline over 550 lbs. Demand moderate. Several cancellations due to the winter weather and road conditions.
