Compared to last week feeder steers under 650 lbs. sold 8.00-25.00 higher. Weights over 650 lbs. sold from 4.00 higher to 8.00 lower. Feeder heifers under 550 lbs. sold 3.00-20.00 higher. Heavier weights sold steady to 8.00 lower. Supply was heavy with very good demand. Yearling cattle were down compared to last week's yearling special with many buyers present last week for these cattle. This makes the yearling cattle market today a bit misleading. Many calf buyers were present today needing calves and the market for these cattle was sharply higher.
