Compared to last week: steers under 600 lbs not well compared, 601 to 700 lbs mostly steady, 701 to 800 lbs steady to 2.00 lower, 801 to 900 lbs 2.00 to 4.00 lower, 901 to 1000 lbs mostly steady. Heifers 550 to 600 lbs steady to 3.00 lower, 601 to 700 lbs 3.00 to 5.00 lower, 701 to 750 lbs mostly steady. Good to very good demand for another large offering this week. Many attractive cattle to choose from, both home raised and backgrounded, available in packages, loads, and strings. Quite a few loads and packages of replacement type heifers available today and these were met with excellent demand. Similar to last week, flesh varied quite a bit again today, from light to heavy. Some tag on some of the cattle again this week. An active market seen for this offering. Very nice weather today with the area seeing temps in the upper 60's. Next feeder cattle sale is Wednesday, March 10.
