Compared to two weeks ago: steers from 800 lbs to 949 lbs were generally 2.00 to 4.00 lower, heifers from 800 lbs to 999 lbs were mostly 2.00 to 4.00 higher. Good to excellent demand for today's offering of feeder cattle, more buyer interest in heifers today than steers. There was a large crowd of order buyers on the seats with fewer farmer feeders than the last sale. Internet buyers were an active part of the sale. Most of the cattle were right off grass so flesh condition ranged from light to moderate. Several long strings of yearling steers and heifers gave buyer the opportunity to buy multiple loads of one owner cattle. There were lots of part loads and packages of mostly tested open heifers with a few consignments of weaned fall calves that buyers could make loads out of. This made for a very active market as cattle feeders are refilling their pens. The next feeder sale is the Anniversary Sale in two weeks, Friday, September 25, 2020 expecting a large run yearlings and several consignments of spring calves.
