No recent value added sales for an adequate price comparison, however compared to Monday's regular feeder sale, steers and heifers under 650lbs sold mostly 5.00 to 12.00 higher, and steers and heifers over 650lbs sold unevenly from 3.00 higher to 6.00 lower. Demand was moderate on a moderate supply.
