Compared to last week: steer calves 450 to 700 lbs 2.00 to 5.00 lower except 500 to 550 lbs mostly steady. Heifer calves 400 to 600 lbs mostly steady, instances up to 6.00 lower on 500 to 550 lbs. Good demand for today's large calf offering with best demand seen for reputation calves sold in loads. Many attractive calves to choose from today, most in light to moderate flesh and off the cow. As with previous weeks, calves without full preconditioning, or at least a full round of fall shots, see light to moderate demand. An active market with many buyers as well as some farmer feeders and bull breeders attending the sale. A high wind advisory for much of the state today with some areas seeing some snow. Travel conditions for high profile vehicles such as cattle trucks are not ideal and many calves will be waiting out this bout of winter weather at the sale barn. Next feeder cattle sale is Thursday, November 18.
