Sale not reported in recent weeks so an accurate price trend can not be established. Predominately strings and loads of steers making up today's offering which was met with good to very good demand depending on flesh condition. Most of the cattle came out of yards, flesh varied form moderate to some heavy flesh. A couple loads off grass in light flesh. Quality mostly average to attractive today. An active market for the offering, lots of optimism in the market right now and buyers are determined to own cattle to market in what is shaping up to be a very high fall season. The area has seen some very timely rains and grass and crop conditions look very good. Watch local listings for the next feeder cattle sale.
