As filed

Compared to last week; steer calves under 600 lbs traded steady to 7.00 higher. Steer calves over 600 lbs traded mostly steady on comparable trades. Heifer calves traded mostly steady to weak on all classes today. A nice offering again this week with warm weather in the area. A very active market as the warm weather has brought on a tent of green in the area. Sale again next Wednesday.
