Compared to Wednesday: Feeder steers were up 3.00 - 8.00 while heifers were unevenly steady. Yearlings, steers and heifers, were 4.00 - 6.00 lower on the weights that had sufficient quantities to compare. Calves with preconditioned shots are more desired with buyers more willing to pay for the extra. There were an abundance of offerings that held inconsistent flesh conditions today. That may have affected buyers willingness to pay but it did not affect the good demand. The market was active as loads filled up quickly. The next Spring Calf Special is Wednesday Oct 23, 2019.
