Compared to last week, Feeder steers traded steady. Feeder heifers steady to 2.00 lower. A remarkably strong sale on both calves and yearlings when considering the plummeting cattle futures and the ever increasing cost of gain. Sellers offered up one of the biggest runs of the season with the top end prices near the highs of the past couple of auctions. Buyers were sensitive to flesh with the fleshier cattle selling at a discount.
