price comparisons available on the yearlings. A big run of calves today for
todays special weaned calf sale. Most of the offering had been long time
weaned, fully vaccinated and ready to go on full feed. A few consignments of
calves coming right off the cow. An active market with internet buyers
competing with order buyers and a few farmer feeders in the seats today. Flesh
condition ranged from light flesh hay fed cattle to moderate plus coming out of
a grow yard. Several weather related conciliations due to icy road conditions
in the area. This is the last feeder cattle auction scheduled for 2025. Next
feeder sale is scheduled for January 9, 2026. Merry Christmas and Happy New
Year.
