Compared to last week, feeder steers and heifers were unevenly steady. Steer and heifer calves were steady to 6.00 higher with most of the gain on heifers calves and peewee steers. Demand was good on a moderate supply. The quality of the offering was good with most of the larger drafts made up of seven and eight weight feeders. The weather was a little more seasonal this week with some rain and snow showers, with warmer temperatures in the forecast.
