Compared to last week: best test on steers 800 to 1000 lbs mostly steady except 900 to 950 lbs not well compared. Best test on heifers 800 to 900 lbs mostly steady. Good to very good demand for today's large offering featuring many steers and heifers off grass selling in loads and strings. Flesh on these varied, mostly light to moderate with some moderate plus at times. Good demand seen for loads of cattle out of yards, most of these in moderate to moderate plus flesh. Overall quality today mostly attractive. An active market seen for this offering, with buyers procuring multiple loads when offered. Some areas received rain over the weekend, however for most producers the hot and dry weather continues. Some areas have started chopping corn. Next feeder cattle sale is Wednesday, August 18.
