Market Notes
Compared to two weeks ago: Steers from 550 lbs to 599 lbs were steady to 3.00 higher, steers from 600 lbs to 699 lbs were steady to 4.00 lower, steers from 700 lbs to 899 lbs were mostly 2.00 to 6.00 higher: heifers from 550 lbs to 699 lbs were generally steady to 3.00 higher. No other comparisons available. A very active market with a house full of buyers competing with internet bidders for todays offering. Over all the greener hay fed cattle were generally higher with a lot of demand for these cattle as yearling prospects. Flesh condition ranged from light fleshed hay fed cattle to moderate plus backgrounded cattle. Several long strings of reputation cattle offered buyers the opportunity to purchase multiple loads of one owner cattle in the same sort (up to 11 loads). Lots of part loads and packages available to choose from as will today. Mostly home raised cattle in todays offering. A few cattle carrying mud as some pen conditions are getting muddy from the thawing snow. Next feeder sale in two weeks, April 7,2023.
Supply included: 100% Feeder Cattle (76% Steers, 23% Heifers, 0% Bulls). Feeder cattle supply over 600 lbs was 78%. AUCTION This Week Last Reported 3/10/2023 Last Year Total Receipts: 7,834 5,007 7,539 Feeder Cattle: 7,834(100.0%) 5,007(100.0%) 7,539(100.0%)
