As filed

Compared to last week: Feeder steers and heifers 3.00 to 5.00 lower, instances to 10.00 lower. Very good demand for this large offering of high quality, attractive steers and heifers. Many long strings, including 1 consignment of 600 head of backgrounded steers and heifers. Many loads lots, including multiple load lots, along with numerous smaller consignments. The market was active still, yet there was pressure on the market as the CME Live and Feeder Cattle contracts were lower. Flesh condition light to moderate plus. Cash fed cattle failed to reach the 250.00 mark, that many were hoping for, along with declines in the futures had cattle feeders feeling a little more cautious. Dry conditions made it easy for consignors to get cattle hauled to town.
