No feeder cattle last week, compared tp two weeks ago: best test on steers 800 to 899 lbs 10.00 to 15.00 higher with instances up to 20.00 higher on 800 to 849 lbs. Best test on heifers 650 to 699 lbs and 750 to 799 lbs 10.00 to 15.00 higher. Very good demand for this large offering featuring a wide variety of cattle, including replacement quality heifers, fall calves, and several strings of big, backgrounded yearling cattle. Flesh varied quite a bit, from light to heavy flesh at times. An active market with buyers taking multiple loads of the same man's cattle to get pens filled. Temps have continued to be higher than normal these last few weeks with some areas seeing spotty rain but most of the area has gotten dry and is in need of rain. Crop and grass conditions still look decent so far, first cut alfalfa is getting started. Next feeder cattle sale is Wednesday, June 14.
