Special Calf & Yearling Sale. No comparison, as the previous auction was Western Iowa Precondition sale. CME feeder cattle futures rebounding today at 8.00 higher. The sale consisted of nine loads, four half loads and many smaller strings. Light steers limited. Good demand, both online and in the arena. Light cattle and loads of yearlings being most in-demand on this offering of quality cattle.
