Compared to last week the only comparable weights were heifers 700 to 750 lbs. which were 5.00 higher. Other weights of steers and heifers did not have the numbers for a comparison. Good demand for todays offering especially for the lighter weight steers and heifers to go onto grass . The recent snow and rains have improved the pasture and hay outlook for this summer. Todays offering consisted of small lots and a couple of load lots. Feeders were in light to moderate flesh condition today.
