Compared to last week: best test on steers 750 to 799 lbs 8.00 to 10.00 higher, 800 to 899 lbs not well compared, 900 to 1049 lbs 4.00 to 8.00 higher with instances up to 10.00 higher. Best test on heifers 550 to 699 lbs 7.00 to 10.00 higher except 600 to 649 lbs not well compared, instances up to 15.00 higher on 650 to 699 lbs, 700 to 749 lbs and 850 to 899 lbs 5.00 to 7.00 higher, 750 to 849 lbs mostly steady on a narrow comparison. Good to very good demand for feeder cattle today. Quite a few loads and multiple loads of bigger, finishing type cattle and mostly packages of lighter grass and backgrounding types. These lighter cattle are still very sought after, however, this week's offering lacked the loads of stand out grass type cattle seen last week. Flesh varied on bigger cattle, but mostly moderate plus to heavy, with cattle being both home raised and backgrounded. A few consignments of fall calves with almost all of these coming off the cow. An active market seen for this offering. Some parts of the country received rain the beginning of the week but in small amounts, most areas are still very dry. Next feeder cattle sale is Wednesday, April 30.
