Compared to last sale two weeks ago: Steers from 750 lbs to 899 lbs were generally 8.00 to 10.00 lower with instances of 12.00 to 15.00 lower, heifers from 600 lbs to 649 lbs were 6.00 to 8.00 lower, heifers from 650 lbs to 699 lbs were 10.00 to 12.00 lower, heifers from 700 lbs to 799 lbs were 3.00 to 5.00 lower. Other weight classes not well compared. Good demand for todays offering of mostly home raised, preconditioned feeders and replacement heifers. Flesh ranged from light fleshed hay feed to moderate plus cattle coming out of grow yards. A moderate to active market with mostly order buyers competing with internet buyers. Several strings offered buyers the opportunity to put multiple loads of one owner cattle together, up to nine loads per consignment. Several consignments of reputation replacement heifers were well received. Futures market continue to see downward pressure. Next feeder sale is Friday, April 26, 2024.
