Special Calf & Yearling Sale. No comparison today, as the previous sale was Preconditioned. Many load lots of yearlings in the offering, along with smaller strings of cattle mostly over 700 lbs. Ice and snow storm came through the area yesterday, resulting in a few less consignments and a lighter crowd. Bidding was active throughout the sale, especially on the load lots.
