Compared to last week: steers 550 to 900 lbs mostly steady except 600 to 700 lbs 2.00 to 4.00 lower. Heifers 500 to 600 lbs mostly steady, 601 to 700 lbs steady to 2.00 lower, 701 to 750 lbs not well compared, 751 to 800 lbs mostly steady. Good to very good demand for today's large offering of packages and loads of both home raised and backgrounded cattle. More flesh overall than last week as this week's offering featured more finishing type cattle than last week, flesh ranged from moderate to heavy. Quality similar to last week, mostly average to attractive. An active market with the normal crowd of buyers and some farmer feeders attending the auction today. Foggy and damp weather has plagued the area the last few days and there have been several reports of power outages today. Very cold weather forecasted for this weekend. Next feeder sale is Wednesday, February 10.
