Compared to last feeder sale two weeks ago, best comparison were on the 700 lbs to 889 lbs steers. It was steady on the lighter cattle and 10 to 15 higher, with instances 20.00 higher on the heavier cattle. Limited test on the heifers with the 650 lbs to 799 lbs steady to 4.00 higher. No other comparisons available due to limited number in their respective weight class. Several strings of fancy bangs vaccinated replacement heifers were meet with very good demand. A vey active market with lots of order buyers in the seat and on the internet. Multiple loads in the same sort was todays theme. Tremendous quality in town today as most of the cattle were long time weaned, fully preconditioned, light to moderate fleshed and clean haired. Most of the area is in need of a good rain while some areas received a good rain last week, others missed out. Next feeder sale will be June 2nd, the 26th Annual WLAC Anniversary Sale.
