Compared to two weeks ago, under 650 lbs sold 10.00 to 15.00 higher over 650 lbs sold 4.00 to 5.00 higher. Heifers sold steady to 6.00 higher. A large crowd of buyers bid readily from start to finish on Monday's offering. Many strings of long-time weaned fall and late summer calves along with some yearling feeders in the mix. Next special calf and yearling sale will be in two weeks on Monday April 25.
