Flesh condition ranged from light fleshed hay fed cattle to moderate plus cattle coming out of grow yards. Todays calf offering consisted of a few consignments coming straight off the cow to long time weaned consignments coming out of grow yards. Lots of buyers on the seats and internet that aggressively placed their bid, wanting to own cattle. Today's sale offered several long strings of one owner cattle in both the yearling and calf consignments, offering buyers the opportunity to put multiple loads of one owner cattle in the same pen. This was the last feeder sale of the year. The next will be January 8, 2021. Merry Christmas and Happy New Year.
