As filed

Compared to the auction from two weeks ago, Steer calves under 550 lbs steady, with steers over 550 lbs 5.00-10.00 lower. Heifer calves under 500 lbs steady, with weights over 500 lbs 3.00-6.00 lower. High feed costs, a disappointing fed cattle market, and a bearish cattle on feed report last week are pressuring the feeder prices, especially the heavier weights. Demand moderate to good and supply moderate.
