Compared to last week: best test on steers 850 to 950 lbs mostly steady, 951 to 1050 lbs 1.00 to 3.00 lower. Best test on heifers 800 to 850 lbs and 951 to 1000 lbs steady to 2.00 lower, 901 to 950 lbs mostly steady. Good to very good demand for another large yearling offering this week. Several long strings of both steers and spayed heifers as well as many loads and packages made up the offering. Quality similar to last week with many attractive cattle to choose from. Flesh mostly light to moderate today with the entire yearling offering coming off grass. Just a couple consignments of spring calves offered today, a load of steers sold with good demand. An active market for this offering with slightly less interest this week in buying multiple loads when offered. Bean harvest is almost completed and most producers have been able to get into corn right away as the warm, dry fall continues. Next feeder cattle sale is Wednesday, October 14, special Anniversary Sale featuring both yearlings and calves.
