Too light an offering today with different weight classes than the light offering two weeks ago so an accurate price trend can not be established. A light offering today with mostly packages and just a couple loads on offer which were met with moderate to good demand. A couple consignments of black hided, light fleshed grass type cattle saw very good demand. Quality varied quite a bit today, lots of plain to average cattle in the mix. Flesh mostly light to moderate plus. A moderate market for this offering with less buyers and farmers attending the sale today. Weather continues to be a big challenge in the area with a blizzard warning in effect for tomorrow and more of the same next week. Temps remain much lower than normal for this time of year. Watch local listings for the next feeder cattle sale.
