Compared to the last feeder cattle sale two weeks ago, steers sold unevenly steady from 4.00 lower to 6.00 higher. Heifers under 700lbs sold unevenly steady from 3.00 lower to 4.00 higher, and heifers over 700lbs had little to compare to two weeks ago. High receipts this week as many producers in the area have run out of forage. Unweaned or short weaned calves are coming to town as well as heifers that were meant to be kept back as replacements. Demand was good for high quality long weaned feeders and moderate to light for the more average to below quality calves.
