As filed

Compared to last Monday; steer calves under 550 lbs traded unevenly steady to 3.00 lower. Steer calves over 550 lbs traded 2.00 to 4.00 lower. Heifer calves under 550 lbs traded also evenly steady with instances 2.00 lower. Heifer calves over 550 lbs also traded 2.00 to 4.00 lower. Nice offering of calves with most of the offering be calves right off the cow. Still a buyers will pay a premium for preconditioned calves.
