Compared to last week: Steer Calves 450 to 650lbs, 5.00 - 8.00 lower; over 650lbs, mostly steady. Heifers 450 - 600lbs were mostly steady to 2.00 higher. Heifers over 650lbs were 5.00 lower. Consigner numbers were down for this sale because of road conditions and weather, but demand remained good for this nice offering of calves. The next special spring calf sale will be Wednesday, November 1, with 4500 expected.
