Compare to last week , not enough feeder steers and heifers 700 lb to 950 lb for a market test, however a lower trend was noted. Steers and heifers 400 lb to 700 lb sold 4.00 to 8.00 lower, some places up to 20.00 lower on unweaned calves. Reputation and thin fleshed calves sold steady to 4.00 higher. Demand was moderate. Slaughter cows and bulls sold 6.00 to 8.00 lower.
