FEEDER CATTLE            7892           4313    6753      
  
  
Compared to two week:  Steers from 600 lbs to 749 lbs were mostly 10.00 to 
15.00 higher, instances 20.00 higher, steers from 750 lbs to 799 lbs were 8.00 
to 10.00 lower, steers from 800 lbs to 899 lbs were 8.00 to 12.00 higher; 
Heifers not well tested but higher undertones would bae noted.  Very good 
demand for all classes of cattle today.  A large run of cattle with a house 
full of producers and buyer competing with internet buyers. Several 
consignments offered multiple loads of cattle in the same sort.  Plenty of part 
loads and packages available to make loads.  Cattle were home raised, fully 
vaccinated, long time weaned and attractive for quality.  Flesh conditions 
ranged from light flesh hay feed cattle to moderate flesh cattle coming out of 
a grow yard.  Load after load of fancy replacement quality heifers were met 
with very good demand.  A very active market for all classes of cattle as 
cattle feeders try to fill pen space and maintain some inventory.  Next feeder 
sale is scheduled for Friday, February 20, 2026
