Different weight classes than last week so an accurate price trend can not be 
established, lower undertones noted on 800 to 849 lbs.  Today's offering was 
one long string of backgrounded black steers from one family operation, the 
same operation as last week.  These attractive cattle were met with very good 
demand with best demand seen for the lightest load which had the potential to 
go to grass.  Flesh condition the same as last week, moderate to moderate plus. 
 An active market with buyers taking multiple or all loads of one cut to fill 
pens quickly.  This area received much needed moisture at the beginning of the 
week, and combined with warmer temps, has given the grass a nice start.  Mostly 
small grain in the ground so far with most farmers just getting a good start on 
corn.  No sale next week due to construction projects, watch local listings for 
the next feeder cattle sale.
