Compared to two weeks ago steer calves under 650 lbs. were down 3.00 to sharply lower, the heavier steers mostly ended mixed. The bright spot in the steers were the 750-800 lbs. which finished 4.00 higher. The heifers calves under 650 lbs. were mostly 2.00-4.00 lower, while the heavier heifers were down 2.00 to sharply lower. Demand was moderate to good for the moderate offerings. Trading was active.
