Compared to last week: Feeder steers were steady between the 450 - 650 pounds. The 650 - 700 weights were 5.00 higher. Feeder heifers were 3.00 - 5.00 higher in the 450 - 650 weights. Most flesh conditions today were moderate plus with a few consignments that had offerings with a nice shine as well. With the holidays fast approaching the demand to fill loads and orders makes for a good demand. Offerings are of moderate activity.
