Compared to last week: Steer calves from 450 - 499 lbs were 5.00 to 6.00 higher, 500 - 549 lbs were steady to 2.00 lower, the 550 - 699 lbs were 3.00 to 5.00 higher. Yearling steers were not of comparable weights. Heifer claves from 400 - 449 lbs were 8.00 to 10.00 higher, the 450 to 499 lbs were 5.00 to 6.00 higher, the 500 - 599 lbs were steady to 2.00 higher. The only weight comparison on the yearling heifers were the 950- 999 lbs and they would be steady to 2.00 higher. No other comparisons made. A very active market with good demand for todays sale. Flesh condition ranged from light fleshed hay fed cattle to moderate plus cattle coming out of grow yards. Todays calf offering consisted of a few consignments coming straight off the cow to long time weaned consignments coming out of grow yards. Lots of buyers on the seats and internet that aggressively placed their bid, wanting to own cattle. Today's sale offered several long strings of one owner cattle in both the yearling and calf consignments, offering buyers the opportunity to put multiple loads of one owner cattle in the same pen. This was the last feeder sale of the year. The next will be January 8, 2021. Merry Christmas and Happy New Year.
