Compared to last week: A light number of light steers made trend not applicable. A higher undertone was noted on steers under 1000 lbs. Steers over 1000 lbs. were dollars higher, due to many large load lots for buyers to fill large pens, with one mans cattle . Heifers 700-850 lbs. were 1.00-2.00 higher. Demand was good with many large load lots in todays offering. The next feeder cattle auction will be Aug. 18th, expecting 1500 head of feeders, starting at 9:00 am.
