Compared to last week: Feeder steers and heifers steady to 5.00 higher. Very good demand for this nice offering of high quality, yearling steers and heifers off grass. The flesh condition was light and attractive and buyers were quick with their bids, which resulted in a very active market. Several full loads in the offering, along with many half loads and smaller packages allowing buyers to get full loads put together. Next week expecting 3,000 yearling steers and heifers.
