Compared to last week: Lighter weight steers were too lightly tested from last week to develop a trend. 750 - 850 lb steers were10.00 lower; 850 - 900 lbs steady, and Yearling Steers over 1000 lbs, 8.00 lower. Most weights of heifers have not been tested yet, however the 700 - 900 lbs were mostly steady. Mostly good demand for both yearlings and spring calves, with branding and fall vaccinated calves bringing premium prices. Quality was mostly average to attractive. The market was moderate to good, with most of the regular calf buyers showing up for this early fall calf sale. Next weeks Spring Calf Sale on Oct. 13 will begin at 9, with weigh up selling the following day. 6500 yearlings and calves expected.
