Compared to last week: steers 550 to 750 lbs steady to 2.00 higher, 751 to 900 lbs 2.00 to 6.00 higher. Heifers 500 to 750 lbs 4.00 to 7.00 higher except 650 to 700 lbs mostly steady. Good demand for today's large offering of packages and loads. More variation in quality this week, with cattle ranging from plain to attractive quality, most in moderate to moderate flesh with some heavy flesh at times. Some cattle carried some tag, lot conditions are starting to get sloppy with temps in the mid 30's and 40's the past week. A moderate to active market seen for this offering. Next feeder cattle sale is Wednesday, March 11.
