No sale last week so comparisons are from two weeks ago: Steers from 550 lbs to 749 lbs were generally 6.00 to 10.00 higher, instances of 12.00 higher; heifers from 500 lbs to 699 lbs were mostly 8.00 to 12.00 higher, instances of 15.00 higher, heifers from 700 lbs to 749 lbs were 4.00 to 6.00 higher. No other comparisons available. Very active market with lots of buyers on the seats competing with internet bidders for todays offering. Flesh conditions ranged from light fleshed hay fed cattle to moderate plus backgrounded cattle. Several consignments offered in multiple loads gave buyers the opportunity to purchase loads of one owner cattle. Lots of part loads and packages allowed buyers to put loads together. Best demand for the greener hay feed cattle suitable for summer grazing. Mild weather in the area has caused some sloppy/muddy pen conditions. Next feeder sale will be Friday, February 17, 2023.
