Compared to last week Feeder Steers 350 to 400 6.00 higher, 400 to 500 3.00 lower, 500 to 550 3.00 higher, 550 to 650 7.00 higher, Feeder Heifers 400 to 450 8.00 higher, 450 to 500 6.00 lower, 500 to 550 Steady to 3.00 higher, 550 to 650 8.00 higher, 750 to 800 Steady. Very Good Demand for Feeder Steers, Feeder Heifers, Replacement Heifers, and Tested Open Heifers which all sold on a Strong, Active Market. Lots of rain in the area over the last week created muddy conditions so some of the Offering showed some mud and tag but otherwise the overall weighing conditions were favorable and the presentation was attractive. Nearly the entire Offering was Home Raised, off the cow, and had Spring and Fall vaccinations. The Next Feeder Cattle Sale is October 24, Expecting 9,000 Head.
