Compared to last week: Feeder steers not enough comparable weights for a market test due to short numbers last week, a good run of green 850-1000 lbs steers offered today. Feeder heifers not enough comparable weights for market test. Calves limited offerings, no comparable weights for accurate market trend. Slaughter cows sold 4.00 to 7.00 higher. Bulls sold 2.00 to 3.00 higher. Overall, demand good to very good, quality average to mostly attractive.
