Special Calf/Yearling & Replacement Heifer Sale. No comparison today, as the last sale was Preconditioned cattle. Upward trend noted on light cattle, despite CME feeder cattle futures showing 4.00 lower today. Many load lots of both steers and heifers over 700 lbs, along with plenty of smaller strings in the offering. Demand good with a lot of interest in the beef cross cattle.
