As filed

Compared to last week: Feeder steers steady to 4.00 higher with instances of 28.00, feeder heifers 3.00 to 5.00 higher with instances of 15.00. Demand for this light offering of feeder cattle was good. Several lots of cattle were hauled in on Saturday due to the Easter holiday. Several lots over 100 head today. The calf market continues to remain hot, as the grass slowly starts to green up and the weather warms up. Feeder prices have gained momentum as feedlots are competing for cattle. CME Feeder Cattle index has gained about $10 per hundredweight since the last day of February and the future is predicting further gains. Slaughter cows and bulls steady.
