Compared to last week feeder steers below 650 lbs. were steady to 3.00 lower, 650 to 750 lbs. were 1.00 to 3.00 higher and steers 750 to 950 lbs. were 1.00 to 3.00 lower. Feeder heifers 600 to 650 lbs. were 8.00 higher, 650 to 750 lbs. were steady to 2.00 lower and 800 to 850 lb. heifers were 2.00 higher. Demand was moderate to good for todays offering. Feeders were in moderate to moderate plus flesh condition and many were carrying more tag than previous sales. The market was active with plenty of buyers actively bidding. Many nice strings and loads of feeders in todays offering.
