Compared to last week: steers 450 to 649 lbs 5.00 to 9.00 lower. Heifers 450 to 599 lbs mostly steady with instances up to 10.00 lower on 500 to 549 lbs. Moderate to good demand for calves today. A handful of loads and many packages made up the offering, with the majority still coming off the cow. Varied shot records again this week and these, along with hide color and days weaned, some calves weaned just 30 days, cause discrimination. Flesh condition mostly light to moderate but some fill seen on the calves at times. A moderate market with a lower board again today. All the optimism of the early fall has evaporated leaving a cloud of uncertainty as the board continues to drop. The area is enjoying exceptional weather, warm and mild, which is great for feeding and weaning and finishing fall work but is being dampened by the disappointing markets. Few feeders expected next week making this the last feeder cattle sale of 2023. Watch local listings for the first feeder cattle sale of 2024. Merry Christmas and Happy New Year!
