Compared to last week: best test on steers 800 to 900 lbs steady to 2.00 higher. Best test on heifers 800 to 900 mostly steady. Good to very good demand for today's yearling offering featuring many strings and loads and some packages, many of these tested open heifers. The majority of today's yearlings were attractive quality and coming off grass in light to moderate flesh. Moderate demand for a few packages and a load of spring calves. Both weaned and unweaned calves offered and shots were hit and miss. An active market with many buyers attending the auction. Silage cutting is just getting started in this area and some bean harvest is taking place as well. The weather has been mostly dry and sunny again this week. Next feeder cattle sale is next Wednesday, October 2.
