Compared to last week: steers 500 to 950 lbs 6.00 to 10.00 lower except 650 to 700 lbs not well tested today. Heifers 500 to 850 lbs 7.00 to 10.00 lower. Moderate to good demand for today's large offering of packages and loads including quite a few loads of replacement quality heifers from reputation outfits, these saw very good demand. Flesh similar to last week, from light to moderate plus with some heavy flesh seen at times. Overall quality more attractive than last week with most cattle average to attractive in quality. Some tag on the cattle again this week as the weather continues to be warm enough for good thawing conditions. A moderate to active market seen for this offering with another day of triple digit losses on both live and feeder cattle futures putting pressure on the market. Next feeder cattle sale is Wednesday, March 18.
