Compared to last week:  steer calves 500 to 599 lbs 7.00 to 15.00 lower with 
instances up to 20.00 lower, 600 to 699 lbs and 750 to 799 lbs 7.00 to 15.00 
higher, 700 to 749 lbs and 800 to 849 lbs 3.00 to 10.00 lower.  Heifers calves 
500 to 599 lbs 4.00 to 10.00 higher, 600 to 649 lbs and 700 to 749 lbs mostly 
steady, 650 to 699 lbs 15.00 to 20.00 higher.  Yearlings not well compared.  
Very good demand for another large feeder cattle offering featuring  a few 
loads of yearlings and many loads and packages of calves.  Similar to last 
week, the majority of the calves were home raised, long time weaned and 
vaccinated.  Many attractive calves to choose from throughout the day with most 
in moderate to moderate plus flesh.  Despite warmer temps and thawing pens, 
most calves were clean and open haired.  An active market with many buyers and 
farmer feeders in the seats, slightly less determination to own cattle than 
last week but still a great amount of interest.  High winds predicted starting 
tomorrow which could impact transportation of livestock.  Next feeder cattle 
sale is Wednesday, January 21, featuring several consignments of Red Angus 
cattle.
