Herreid, South Dakota

Compared to last week: steers 700 to 799 lbs 5.00 to 10.00 higher, 800 to 899 lbs steady to 2.00 higher. Best test on heifers 600 to 649 lbs mostly steady. A large offering of feeder cattle this week featuring many loads and strings of both home raised and backgrounded cattle and quite a few packages of home raised cattle. Good to very good demand for cattle without too much extra flesh, moderate to good demand for fleshier cattle. Very good demand for replacement heifers. Lots of attractive cattle on offer and a few plainer cattle as producers clean out pens before calving. An active market with mostly order buyers in the seats. Warm weather in the 60's expected for the weekend and then cooler weather to follow, temperatures have been very up and down the last few weeks. No sale next week due to Good Friday, next feeder cattle sale is Friday April 10.
