Compared to last week: feeder steers from 550 lbs to 599 lbs were steady to 3.00 lower, steers from 600 lbs to 799 lbs were steady to instances of 3.00 higher, 800 lbs to 849 lbs were steady to 2.00 lower. Feeder heifers from 500 lbs to 649 lbs were mostly 4.00 to 6.00 higher, while the 650 lbs to 699 lbs were generally steady. Good to very good demand for this large offering of high quality steers and heifers. Many full loads and multiple load lots of one consigner cattle in today's sale. There were also plenty of part loads and packages available to make loads out of available in today's offering. Most consignments were long time weaned and in light to moderate flesh conditions. Very active market with plenty of order buyers in the seats, with lots of action from the internet bidders as well. Next feeder sale will be Friday, February 26th, expecting a large run of high quality feeder cattle. Stay safe
