Compared to last week: Feeder steers and heifers were too lightly tested to develop an accurate market trend, however higher undertones were noticed. Demand was mostly moderate on light offerings. Quality this week was average to attractive, despite light offerings. Feeders were mostly offered in small packages. With several buyers needing to finish loads for the week demand improved as the sale progressed. Market activity this week was mostly moderate to active. Weigh up cows sold on mostly good to very good demand for moderate to heavy offerings. Feeding buyers were the big push this sale as several buyers were very active in buying high quality cows to feed. Packers showed good demand for cows as well as they purchased cows both to feed and to send to immediate harvest. Feeding cows sold mostly 2.00-4.00 higher on an attractive to very attractive offering. Slaughter cows sold mostly 1.00-3.00 higher as packers were forced to pay higher money to compete with feeding cow buyers over offerings. Weigh up conditions were mixed this sale. Slaughter bulls sold mostly 1.00-3.00 higher. A very attractive offering of bulls was seen this sale. Young age cows suitable to feed or re-breed sold unevenly steady, with re-breed type cattle selling fully steady and feeding quality cattle selling 3.00-4.00 lower.
