No sale last week due to the 4th of July holiday. Different weight classes today than two weeks ago so an accurate price trend can not be established, higher undertones noted on both steers and heifers. Good to very good demand for today's offering. Quality varied, especially on packages, from plain to attractive. Flesh mostly moderate to moderate plus with some heavy flesh. An active market with a few less buyers attending, farmer feeders are busy haying and such. This part of the country has seen plenty of rain the last few weeks and grass and crop conditions look very good, although there were storms with hail and high winds in some areas. A huge contrast to this time last year, when yearlings were coming off grass and to town since the grass was used up and conditions were extremely dry. Hot and humid weather forecasted for the rest of the week. Watch local listings for the next feeder cattle sale.
