Compared to two weeks ago: best test on steers 650 to 699 lbs and 750 to 799 lbs 2.00 to 4.00 higher. Best test on heifers 550 to 699 lbs 1.00 to 4.00 higher. A large offering today featuring many loads and packages as well as a few multiple loads of both home raised and backgrounded cattle. Finishing type cattle see mostly good demand, while lighter cattle with more options see very good demand. Quality varied most on packages, with many producers cleaning out pens for calving, however, there were also many attractive cattle to choose from. Flesh condition ranged from light to some heavy flesh at times, some mud this week but lots of clean hides as pen conditions continue to improve. An active market with most of the normal buyers attending. Watch local listings for the next feeder cattle sale.
