Western Iowa Precondition Sale. No comparison, as the last sale was not Precondition. Several large strings of both calves and yearlings, along with plenty of smaller packages of mostly calves in the offering today. Good demand both online and in the arena. The next feeder sale is December 6, Western Iowa Precondition Sale.
