Compared to last week: best test on steers 700 to 1040 lbs mostly steady, except 950 to 1000 lbs not well compared. Best test on heifers 600 to 899 lbs mostly steady except 800 to 849 lbs not well compared. Good to very good demand for another large offering with light, grass type cattle seeing excellent demand again this week. Several loads and packages of replacement type heifers met with very good demand. Flesh condition similar to last week, from light to some heavy flesh at times. Quality varied most in packages with more plain cattle included in these, strings and loads were mostly average to attractive in quality. An active market seen for this offering, both order buyers and farmer feeders in the seats as well as a few producers interested in heifers to breed. Rainy and cloudy conditions today and cooler conditions expected for the rest of the week, it looks to finally warm up next week.
