Compared to last week: Feeder steers from 500 to 599 lbs, 5.00 to 10.00 higher on a light test; 600 to 699 lbs, 8.00 lower; 700 lbs and up 10.00 higher on a light test. Heifers 500 to 549 lbs were steady; 550 to 600 lbs 5.00 lower; over 600 lbs, 8.00 to10.00 lower. Buyers were offered a nice run of feeder steers, heifers and Bangs vaccinated heifers, with a few load lots and several large packages. Most were fully vaccinated. Active buyers purchased large groups of quality replacement heifers. Attendance was good despite a cold front bringing early morning temperatures in the single digits. The next sale is March 18, 2022, and will be a bred cow special.
