Compared to last week: steers 550 to 600 lbs steady, 601 to 950 lbs 2.00 to 5.00 lower with instances up to 9.00 lower on 650 to 700 lbs. Heifers 550 to 800 lbs 3.00 to 5.00 lower except 650 to 700 lbs not well compared. Moderate to good demand seen for today's offering of both back grounded and home raised steers and heifers selling mostly in packages and loads and a few multiple loads. Several packages and loads of replacement quality heifers offered which were met with good to very good demand. Quality varied more today than last week, from plain to attractive, slightly less attractive quality overall than last week. Varied flesh again this week, mostly light to moderate plus. A moderate market seen for this offering. The state is under a winter weather advisory today with varying amounts of snowfall across the state making travel more difficult today. Next feeder cattle sale is Wednesday, March 17.
