Compared to last week feeder steers 550 to 600 lbs. were 2.00 lower; 650 to 700 lbs. were 7.00 higher and 700 to 850 lbs. were steady. Feeder heifers 550 to 600 lbs. were 5.00 higher and 650 to 700 lbs. were 3.00 higher. Other weights of steers and heifers did not have the numbers for a comparison this week. Buyer demand was only moderate this week with fewer buyers in attendance due to the storm that went through last night that resulted in bad road conditions. It appears that another storm in predicted for next week. Most feeders were in light to moderate plus flesh condition. A few bunches of replacement heifers were in todays offering.
