Compared to last week steer calves under 700 lbs. were mostly steady to 5.00 higher; over 700 lbs. mostly 3.00-5.00 higher. Heifer calves under 600 lbs. were mostly 2.00 higher while the heavier heifers were mostly steady to 2.00 lower. Demand was good for the moderate offerings. Several large groups and load lots were in the offerings. Trading was active.
