Compared to last week the number of feeders were down due to a cold spell a few days before the sale. Feeder steers 550 to 600 lbs were 5.00 higher; 650 to 700 lbs. 7.00 lower and 800 to 850 lbs. were 5.00 lower. Feeder heifers 500 to 600 lbs were 2.00 to 7.00 lower; 600 to 650 lbs. 8.00 higher and 650 to 700 lbs. 15.00 lower. Buyer demand was good for today's offering but not a aggressive as in the past few weeks. Most feeders were in light to moderate plus flesh condition.
