Special Calf Sale next Wednesday, November 6, 2024

Compared to last week, feeder steers and heifers under 700 lbs sold 10.00 to 20.00 higher. Steers over 700 lbs sold steady to 5.00 higher. Heifers, not enough for comparison. Slaughter cows sold steady to 6.00 lower. Good demand for moderate supply.
