Compared to last week: Steer Calves were sharply lower, with the exception of 550-600lbs, 20.00 lower, and 650-700lbs, mostly steady. Heifer Calves 400-600 lbs, were 7.00-10.00 higher. Nice offering of home raised calves, with mixed vaccinations sheets, sold on good demand. Black hided and fully vaccinated brought premiums. The market was active, with lots of buyers in the seats and online. A few cancelations today because of heavy fog in the area. Temperatures have cooled but still little to no moisture.
