Compared to last week: Steer and heifer calves mostly steady to firm. Feeder steers steady. Feeder heifers weighing over 600 lbs traded firm to 3.00 higher, as several loads of high quality heifers straight off of the wheat were on offer. Receipts were lighter as a winter storm bringing cooler temperatures and blizzard like conditions moved across the region on Tuesday and Wednesday. Slaughter cows mostly steady to weak. No recent comparable sales on slaughter bulls.
