As filed

Compared to last week: Feeder steers and heifers traded mostly steady to 3.00 lower on comparable sales. Not enough comparable sales on steer and heifer calves for a market trend but a much higher undertone was noted. Several nice packages of light weight weaned calves headed to grass on offer. Buyer demand was moderate on light to moderate trading activity.
