Compared to last week: Feeder steers sold mostly steady with limited comparable weights, instances of 7.00 higher on 850-900 lbs steers. Feeder heifers compared to last week's limited receipts, lighter heifers noted a higher undertone, 700-900 lbs sold steady to weak, instances of 1.00 lower. Majority of consignments were thinner cattle off of grass. Calves limited comparable weights, slightly lower undertone noted. Demand good to very good, quality average to attractive.
