As filed

Compared to last week, feeder steers under 700lbs traded unevenly steady from 2.00 lower to 3.00 higher, and steers over 700lbs were scarce in supply. Feeder heifers under 600lbs traded unevenly steady from 3.00 lower to 4.00 higher, and heifers over 600lbs were not well tested. Quality ran below average with fewer large strings and very few yearling cattle offered this week. Demand was moderate to light on a light supply.
