Compared to last week:  Slaughter steers and heifers 2.00 to 3.00 lower, 
non-implanted steers and heifers 2.00 to 5.00 higher.  Moderate to good demand 
for this lighter offering of steers and heifers on a snowy winter day.  The 
market was fairly active, 8 full loads of steers, 1 full load of heifers.  
Lower futures prices since last week had packer buyers on the defensive.  
Cattle carrying a good amount of tag as it's been very challenging for cattle 
feeders to keep cattle clean.

Slaughter lambs under 100 lbs 15.00 to 45.00 higher, 120-150 lbs 2.00 to 4.00 
higher, 150 lbs and heavier 5.00 lower.  Slaughter ewes mostly steady.  Very 
good demand for non-traditional weight slaughter lambs, good demand for 
traditional weights.  Very good demand for the light fleshed feeder lambs 
offered, the market was very active for those.  A lighter offering as a winter 
storm moves into the region today.
