As filed

Compared to last week feeder steers 500 to 600 lbs. were 6.00 higher an 600 to 650 lbs. were steady from last week. Feeder heifers 450 to 550 lbs. were steady to 3.00 lower. Good buyer demand this week with higher prices paid for calves with two rounds of shots. Most calves are not weaned and coming right off the cow. Flesh condition was light to moderate and the storm last week and colder temps is showing on the lighter weight calves coming to market this week. Expecting a larger number of calves next week.
