Compared to last week: steers 550 to 700 lbs 1.00 to 4.00 lower, 701 to 800 lbs mostly steady. Heifers 550 to 700 lbs mostly steady with an instance up to 6.00 higher on 700 to 750 lbs. Good to very good demand for light fleshed calves suitable for grass, moderate to good demand for feeding type cattle. Varied flesh again this week, from light to some heavy flesh at times. Quality similar to recent weeks, mostly average to attractive. An active market seen for the offering. A warmer day today with temperatures in the 30's and 40's expected for the rest of the week. Next feeder cattle sale is Wednesday, February 2.
