Compared to the last tested market from two weeks ago, feeder steers and heifers traded steady to 5.00 lower. Calves this week were generally offered in smaller packages and it seemed more unweaned/short weaned calves were in the offering along with some carrying a bit more flesh than buyers desire. Temperatures have went from hot to cold, and Northeast Missouri woke up this morning with a couple of inches of wet snow on the ground.
