The last feeder sale was three weeks ago and numbers were low this week so no comparison will be made. Today's sale consisted of yearlings steers and heifers and a few drafts of spring calves. The weather has been so nice that calves are being left on the cow for later sales. Most calves were in light to moderate flesh condition. Buyer demand was good for today's offering.
