As filed

Compared to last week's thin test bawling calves on Wednesday sold fully steady. Heifer calves sold steady to 3.00 higher with yearling heifers trading 4.00 to 6.00 higher. Demand was good for all offerings. Nice run of yearling feeders coming off short dry summer grass along with a nice run of fresh bawling calves. Light rain at the sale with temperatures in the mid 60's and buyers were looking for calves with preconditions shots. Special calf and feeder auction next Wednesday September 28.
