Compared to the last sale three weeks ago, steers sold with a sharply higher undertone, particularly those under 600 lbs. Heifers 2.00 to 5.00 higher. Slaughter cows steady. The local cash feeder market opened the new year with a bang, with early steer sales easily trending 5.00 to 10.00 higher, a spread that grew to 15.00 to 20.00 higher on steers under 600 lbs. The only exception to the big upswing were some 600-700 lb steers which traded steady to 2.00 higher. Heifer cattle lagged behind their brothers quite a bit and couldn't match their sharp uptick but still tacked on some money. The real story on the heifer end was the demand for replacement quality heifers from a handful of reputation consignors; most of those bought for development rang up an impressive 1100.00-1300.00 per head. Optimism abounds. Supply heavy, demand good to very good.
