Trade activity and demand was good. Feeder steers traded mostly 2.00 to 9.00 higher with a few sharply higher. Feeder heifers traded uneven. Heifers weighing 350 to 600 pounds traded mostly steady to 6.00 lower, while heifers 600 pounds and up traded mostly 4.00 to 11.00 higher. There seemed to be a fairly big variance in quality and vaccination programs. Next available report will be as receipts warrant.
