As filed

Compared to last week: Steer calves under 500 lbs. mostly steady on limited comparable quotes, 500-700 lbs. steady to 1.00 higher, over 700 lbs. 3.00-5.00 lower. Heifer calves under 600 lbs. unevenly steady, no comparison over 600 lbs. but a lower undertone noted though quality and condition not as attractive. Slaughter cows steady to 1.00 lower, bulls 3.00 lower though quality not as attractive.
