First feeder cattle sale in recent weeks so no price trend is available. A light offering of feeders today with load lots seeing very good demand and packages selling with moderate to good demand, it was difficult to make a load from packages. An attractive offering of home raised, weaned, and vaccinated calves. Flesh condition was mostly moderate to moderate plus, a few calves in heavy flesh. An active market with a nice crowd of buyers and some farmer feeders in the seats. Next feeder cattle sale is Thursday, January 15, featuring Red Angus replacement heifers.
