Compared to last week steer calves under 600 lbs sold steady to 10.00 lower and heifer calves under 600 lbs sold steady to 15.00 lower, the six weight steer calves sold steady to 10.00 higher. Yearling steers sold 20.00 lower. Demand was moderate to good from the buyers in the crowd with internet activity noticed. Nearly all the calves had received at least one round of pre-weaning vaccinations.
