Compared to two weeks ago: Feeder steers under 600 lbs mostly steady, over 600 lbs 3.00 to 7.00 higher with instances to 10.00 higher on 650-700 lbs. Feeder heifers under 700 lbs steady to 2.00 higher, over 700 lbs 2.00 to 5.00 lower. Very good demand for this large offering of high quality feeder cattle. Many long strings which resulted in over 2 dozen full loads of steers and heifers. Many replacement quality heifers, the quality of these cattle were outstanding. The market was very active, whether it was for the light weight cattle suitable to background, feeding types, or replacement heifers as there were plenty of buyers eager to get cattle bought. Flesh condition ran more towards moderate plus on the cattle over 700 lbs. Next special feeder cattle sale will be March 9, 2021.
