As filed

Compared to last week, feeder steers traded mostly steady to 2.00 higher with spots of lightweight steer calves trading up to 10.00 higher. Feeder heifers traded unevenly steady from 1.00 higher to 2.00 lower on a light test. Supply was light with muddy conditions outside. Demand was moderate for average quality feeders, and very good for high quality feeders offered today.
