Reporter comment USDA

As filed

No trend as this was this was the first sale of 2023. A very nice offering of all classes of feeder cattle with a very active market from both the seats and the internet. Lots of long stings of long timed weaned feeder cattle and grass cattle. No trend but higher undertones noted on lighter feeders on both steers and heifers. There will be another large Feeder Sale next Wednesday as there were a few cancellations this week due to weather conditions.
