Compared to two weeks ago: Steer Calves 500 - 550, mostly steady; 550 - 600lbs, sharply lower on a much smaller showing than the last sale; 600 - 650lbs, mostly steady. Heifer Calves 500 - 650lbs, sharply lower on a smaller showing from two weeks ago. Moderate to good demand for this offering of calves, with weaned, fully vaccinated, and black hided selling at a premium. Flesh varied, and the market activity was moderate, with many of the regular buyers missing from the seats. The next sale, Friday, December 8 is a feeder calf special.
