Compared to last week: Feeder steers under 700 lbs steady to 5.00 lower, instances to 10.00 lower on 650-700 lbs, over 700 lbs steady to 2.00 higher with instances of 5.00 higher on 800-850 lbs. Feeder heifers unevenly steady. Good to very good demand for this special Hereford influenced feeder cattle sale. The market was very active for these cattle that will fit the Certified Hereford Beef program, many of these cattle were in a light flesh condition making them easy to sell. Flesh condition on the black hide and mixed colored cattle was more on the moderate plus side. With the warmer weather, and rain received earlier in the week cattle locked up in feedyard pens were carrying quite a bit of tag and were less eye appealing compared to those that were clean and open haired. Next week, Feb 23, 2023 expecting 7,000 feeder cattle starting at 8:00 am.
