Compared to last week: Not enough comparable sales on feeder steers or heifers for a market trend, but a much higher undertone was noted. The majority of the supply consisted of bred cows. As a result, buyer attendance was very good. Quality was very attractive, with a nice set of heavy bred red angus cows off of a herd liquidation, and several loads of black cows that were second to third stage bred on offer. The feeder cattle quality was very attractive as well, with several nice load lots of cattle on offer. Buyer demand was good on active trading activity.
