Compared to last Friday: Feeders steers in the comparable weights, under 650 pounds, were 1.00 - 3.00 lower. Feeder heifers of 750 - 950 pounds were 1.00 - 3.00 lower while the 400 - 600 weights were 9.00 lower. Feeder yearlings and calves carried a thin fleshed condition for the most part resulting in an active market. The market is discriminating against lack of pre-condition shots for this sale that is reflective on the price trend. There was a very good demand for this sale with offerings being rapidly absorbed. Next sale is Wed Oct 21, 2020.
