Compared to last week: best tests on steers 900 to 950 lbs and 1000 to 1050 lbs steady to 2.00 higher with instances up to 5.00 higher on 1000 to 1050 lbs. Best test on heifers 750 to 800 lbs steady to 2.00 higher. A large offering this week featuring several strings as well as many loads and packages, including several consignments of fall calves. Good to very good demand for the offering with cattle which can go to grass seeing excellent demand again this week. Quality similar to last week, from plain to attractive, with more variation in packages. Flesh mostly light to moderate plus today. An active market with buyers and a few farmers competing to get cattle bought. Very hot temps are forecasted for this weekend. Producers in this area are just getting started on alfalfa and some cover crops. Next feeder cattle sale is Wednesday, June 22.
