Compared to last week: steers 550 to 900 lbs mostly steady except 650 to 700 lbs not well compared, instances up to 5.00 lower on 600 to 650 lbs. Best test on heifers 550 to 750 lbs mostly steady with instances up to 4.00 lower on 550 to 650 lbs. Good demand for today's offering of many packages and loads. Quality similar to recent weeks with mostly average to attractive quality on offer. Flesh varied more than last week, from light to heavy flesh, with less flesh overall today than seen last week. About 1500 head of cancellations today due to the bitter cold temps the area is experiencing. A moderate to active market with a good attendance despite the weather. Cold weather to continue through the week and be very bitter over the weekend. Next feeder cattle sale is Wednesday, February 17.
