Compared to last week: Feeder steers sold mostly steady to 1.00 lower. Feeder heifers sold steady to 2.00 higher using limited comparable weights. Weaned steer calves sold 2.00 to 4.00 higher. Weaned heifer calves 300-500 lbs sold 1.00 to 3.00 lower, 500-600 lbs sold steady to 2.00 higher. Overall, demand good to very good, quality average to attractive. Slaughter cows sold mostly steady.
