Compared to last week: Feeder steers 350-450 lbs 15.00 lower; 450-750 lbs steady to 4.00 lower. Feeder heifers 450-500 lbs steady; 500-550 lbs 7.00 lower; 550-700 lbs 2.00 - 4.00 lower. Moderate to good demand for today's offering. Quality was mostly attractive with a few drafts of weaned calves, but mostly calves off the cow in light to moderate flesh. Most of the calves had full preconditioning shots. No feeder calf sale next week due to Thanksgiving, there will be a bred cattle sale on Friday, November 29. The next feeder cattle sale is scheduled for Thursday, December 5.
