Compared to last week steers less than 600 lbs sold 8.00 to 10.00 higher, 600
to 800 lbs sold 1.00 to 2.00 higher, and over 800 lbs sold 4.00 to 8.00 higher.
Heifers less than 600 lbs sold 7.00 to 10.00 higher, and over 600 lbs sold
unevenly steady on heifers going to the feedlots. Heifers sold by the head
going back as replacements sold 300.00 per head more. Demand was good to very
good. Quite a few heifers going back to the breeding pastures this summer. A
lot of ranchers have sold their heifer crop the last couple of years and are
needing to replace old cows on the ranch. Per say, expansion may not be
happening as drought conditions are knocking on the door and ranchers are
swapping old genetics for younger genetics in their herds. Feedlots held firm
on asking prices and sold at higher money on the week on a Friday trade. Live
sales sold 5.00 higher from 245.00 to 246.00 and dressed sales sold 4.00 higher
at mostly 382.00
