As filed

Quality sale of feeder heifers, feeder steers, and a few bulls. Mostly not weaned but a few weaned calves. A little rain in the area with warmer weather compared to a week ago. Prices higher on the a few weights while lower on others. Demand moderate to good. Next sale will be November 10 with a special calf sale.
