Compared to last feeder sale two weeks ago: Steers from 550 lbs to 899 lbs were 6.00 to 8.00 higher with instances of 12.00 higher, steers from 900 lbs to 949 lbs were steady to two lower; Heifers from 550 lbs to 899 lbs were 8.00 to 10.00 higher with instances 14.00 higher. No other comparisons. Today's Livestock Auctioneer Anniversary sale drew in a larger crowed of buyers and consigners. Flesh condition ranged from light fleshed fall calves off the cows to moderate plus backgrounded cattle. Several long strings from reputation ranches offered buyers the opportunity to put multiple loads of one owner cattle together. A very active market as buyers tried to procure cattle. Continued dryness in the area has producers concerned as they continue to pull cattle forward. Stay safe eat beef
