Different weight classes of cattle today then two weeks ago to compare and develop an accurate price trend. Moderate to good demand for this lighter offering with best demand seen for grass type cattle and replacement quality heifers. Many packages and several loads made up this offering. Quality varied quite a bit, especially on packages. Flesh ranged from light to moderate plus with some heavy flesh at times. A moderate to active market with a lighter attendance of buyers today. Cold weather and wind for the rest of the week with some areas seeing more snow. Watch local listings for the next feeder cattle sale.
