Compared to last Tuesday sale on a calf special, not enough yearlings for a good market test. Feeder steers under pressure on a uneven market base. Instances 5.00-10.00 lower to sharp declines on 400 lb calves. Feeder heifers under 500 lbs 14.00-16.00 higher on uneven market, over 500 lbs steady 3.00-5.00 lower. Demand moderate to good with buyers filling up loads and finish for the day.
