As filed

Compared to last week: Few comparable sales of yearling feeder steers and heifers mostly 5.00 lower. Moderate demand for this nice offering of yearling steers and heifers, several long strings offered in multiple load lots. Flesh condition ranged from light to moderate plus. The market was not near as active as cattle feeders have been getting hammered by lower cash fed cattle and weak cattle futures complex. Light demand for the few packages of spring born calves offered as most producers aren't ready to take on a bawling calf. No feeder cattle sale next week due to the Labor Day holiday.
