Compared to last week: steer calves 400 to 550 lbs 3.00 to 6.00 higher, 551 to 600 lbs and 651 to 700 lbs 4.00 to 7.00 lower, 601 to 650 lbs steady to 1.00 lower. Heifer calves 450 to 650 lbs 2.00 to 5.00 lower. Yearling steers and heifers different weight classes than last week. Good to very good demand for several strings and many loads of yearling steers and heifers offered today. Flesh mostly moderate to moderate plus. Moderate to good demand for today's calf offering with many attractive loads and packages available. More flesh overall on the calves than last week, with many calves in moderate to moderate plus flesh. Similar to the last few weeks, the majority of the calves had full preconditioning or at least a full shot series in the fall. All calves off the cow again today. A moderate to active market for today's large offering. Corn harvest is slowly progressing, field conditions remain muddy and corn is wet. No feeder cattle next week due to Thanksgiving, next feeder cattle sale is Wednesday, December 4, and a special weaned calf sale Saturday, December 7. Happy Thanksgiving!!
