As filed

The last Feeder Cattle Sale was three weeks ago therefore no market comparison may be made. Very Good Demand for several long strings, load lots, and many packages of Feeder Steers, Feeder Heifers, and Replacement Heifers as well as a Premier Bull sale which all sold on a Strong, Active Market. Much of the Offering was Home Raised and carried Light to Moderate Flesh with some instances of Moderate Plus. Unseasonably warm weather has created mud in some pens resulting in evidence of some tagg but nothing too distracting. In correlation with the bull sale were several lots of high quality replacement heifers which sold on a per head basis as noted in the report. The next Feeder Cattle Sale is March 5th, expecting 1,000 Head.
