Compared to last week: Steers 400 -450 lbs, 8.00 lower; 450 - 500 lbs, 20.00 lower; 500 - 550 lbs, mostly steady; 550 - 600 lbs, 15.00 lower; 600 - 700 lbs, 7.00 - 10.00 lower. Heifers 400 - 500 lbs, 8.00 to 10.00 higher; 500 - 550 lbs, mostly steady; 550 - 600 lbs, 16.00 lower. Prices varied depending on hide color and vaccinations for this offering of mostly spring calves fresh off the cows. A few loads and lots of large packages sold on good demand. Conditioning was mixed, but there were lots of quality calves for buyers to chose from.
