Compared to last week: steers 650 to 750 lbs, 801 to 850 lbs, and 951 to 1000 lbs 4.00 to 8.00 higher with instances up to 10.00 higher on 951 to 1000 lbs, 751 to 800 lbs mostly steady, 851 to 950 lbs 2.00 to 3.00 higher. Heifers 600 to 850 lbs 3.00 to 5.00 higher. Good to very good demand for today's large offering of many packages, loads, and strings of both home raised and backgrounded cattle including a long string of 1300 backgrounded heifers. Several loads and packages of replacement heifers offered again this week, demand for these is being pressured a bit by the dry conditions the area is experiencing. Flesh similar to last week, from light to moderate plus, with many light fleshed, grass type cattle available again this week. An active market for this offering which strengthened throughout the day today. Warm temperatures expected for the rest of the week and weekend with little chance of moisture. Next feeder cattle sale is Wednesday, April 7, expecting another large offering of 6000 plus.
