Compared to last week: Feeder steers mixed with the better kind under 400 lbs steady to 2.00 higher over 400 lbs mostly steady to 5.00 lower and the plainer 400-600 lbs 1.00-2.00 higher. Feeder heifers mostly 3.00-5.00 lower with better 300-350 lbs and most plainer kind steady to 2.00 higher. Quality was not as good as last with several unweaned calves in the offering. Cows and bulls not reported due to time limits.
