Special Calf & Yearling Sale. No comparison, as the previous sale was Western Iowa Precondition. Many load lots of yearling steers and replacement/feeding heifers, along with plenty of smaller packages in the offering. CME feeder cattle futures gaining almost 3.00 today. Demand was very active, both online and in the arena, especially on the featured consignment and load lots. The next auction is May 16.
