Compared to last week: Feeder steers 750-900 lbs sold steady to 2.00 lower. Feeder heifers sold 5.00 to 6.00 higher using limited comparable weights. Majority of consignments were green, thinner cattle off of grass. Calves not enough comparable weights for a market test, higher undertone noted, with best demand for weaned calves having a vaccination program. Overall, demand good to very good, quality average to mostly attractive. Slaughter cows sold unevenly steady. Bulls sold 1.00 to 2.00 lower using a limited test.
