Heifer calves weighing 450-600 lbs traded unevenly steady as overall numbers and quality were not as plentiful as last week, 600-650 lbs and 700-750 lbs sold steady. Demand was good on a moderate to heavy supply as buyers again this week were geared up for battle especially on the thin/fancy steer calves weighing 500-650 lbs and yearling steers weighing 750-850 lbs.
