As filed

Sale not reported last week due to light feeder cattle receipts. Compared to two weeks ago: best test on steers 900 to 950 lbs 2.00 to 3.00 lower, 951 to 1000 lbs 6.00 to 10.00 higher. Heifers not well compared. Good to very good demand for today's offering featuring mostly loads and strings of average to attractive steers and heifers. A couple consignments off grass, but most cattle came out of yards today. Flesh mostly moderate to moderate plus overall. An active market with buyers taking multiple loads of a weight class when available. Grass and crop conditions remain very good in this area. Watch local listings for the next feeder cattle sale.
