Compared to last week the bawling steer and heifer calves over 500 lbs sold unevenly steady. The groups of preg checked open heifers sold steady. Demand was moderate to good from the buyers in the crowd. Around 200 head of the calves had not received fall vaccinations with some of those not having vaccinations any time in their lives, all selling at a sizable discount.
