Compared to last Monday; steer and heifer calves traded unevenly steady throughout the course of the day with the exception of a 500 lb heifer trading 5.00 lower. A large offering this week with a few load lots but mostly package trade. A nice offering all the way around with an active internet and several buyers on the seats. Bred Cow Special next Monday.
