Compared to last Friday: Steers from 450 lbs to 499 lbs were 6.00 to 8.00 higher, steers from 500 lbs to 549 lbs were 2.00 to 4.00 lower, steers from 550 lbs to 599 lbs were 6.00 to 8.00 higher, steers from 600 lbs to 649 lbs were steady to 2.00 higher, steers from 650 lbs to 699 lbs were 6.00 to 8.00 higher; Heifers from 400 lbs to 549 lbs were 2.00 to 4.00 higher, heifers from 550 lbs to 649 lbs were steady to 6.00 higher. Good to very good demand for both yearling and calves today. A very active market on all classes of cattle today with lots of buyers in the seats competing with internet buyers. Most of the calves were fully pre-conditioned, attractive for quality, clean with little to no tag. Calves were light fleshed, right off the cow and had been running on dry pasture conditions. The recent cold blustery conditions in the area has greened the calves up. Icy conditions remain out in the country side. The Next feeder sale will be in two weeks, Dec 2, 2022. Happy Thanksgiving.
