Reporter comment USDA

As filed

Compared to last Monday; steer and heifer calves traded 5.00 to 10.00 lower with instances 15.00 lower on calves with just spring shots. A nice offering today with many of the lots being pre-conditioned. Moderate bidding throughout the day with several small packages of calves with only spring shots being discounted this week. Calf Special again in two weeks.
