Compared to last week: Slaughter steers and heifers sold with steadyish undertones. Holsteins sold steady to slightly higher in a light test. Demand for this eye appealing offering of fed cattle was good. Despite the frigid temps there were buyers available to make the auction active. Most cattle were hauled in over night making weighs up favorable for the buyer. Non implant and drug free cattle were sought after today creating a small incentive for producers. Several lots carried a small amount of tag due to fluctuating weather this winter. Estimated dressed cost 248.00 - 255.00. Consumers could be a big factor concerning beef prices - what are they willing to pay in the store and what grades will they look for. Slaughter cows steady to 2.00 higher. Bulls steady in a light test.

Traditional weight slaughter lambs sold steadyish in a very light test. The artic temps made for a light offering of eye appealing sheep and goats. The demand was good considering there was a light crowd today. Slaughter ewes sold with steady to higher undertones.
