Compared to last week: Feeder steers and heifers not enough comparable weights for an accurate market trend, lower undertone noted. Using limited comparable weights, unweaned steer calves sold steady to 3.00 higher. Unweaned heifer calves sold unevenly steady. Overall, demand good to very good, quality average to attractive. Slaughter cows sold 4.00 to 5.00 higher, bulls sold steady to 2.00 higher using a limited test.
