Close: Compared to last week: Feeder steers 850-900 lbs sold 5.00 to 8.00 higher. Due to limited offerings last week, feeder heifers no trend available, higher undertone prevailed. Steer calves not enough comparable weights for a market test. Using a limited test, heifer calves 450-500 lbs sold steady to firm. Slaughter cows sold steady to 2.00 higher. Several cows of higher quality on offer. Bulls sold steady to 3.00 higher using a limited test. Overall, demand good to very good, quality average to mostly attractive.
