As filed

Compared to last week: Feeder steers 649 lbs and under steady to 3.00 higher, 650 lbs and higher steady to 3.00 lower. Feeder heifers 400 lbs to 450 lbs 3.00 to 4.00 higher, anything over 450 lbs steady to 4.00 lower. Demand for this light offering of eye appealing feeder steers and heifers was moderate to good. Some cattle were hauled in on Friday to beat the snow storm and artic temps. Flesh conditions were grass feed to heavy backgrounding. With artic temps expected for the week some buyers were hesitant even with a good vaccination program in place. Several consigners cancelled due to the frigid temps and rescheduling to next week. Sale will be much bigger next week. Slaughter cows and bulls steady in a light test.
