Compared to last week: Feeder steers 3.00 to 6.00 higher, heifers 2.00 to 3.00 higher with instances of 5.00 higher on 800-900 lbs. Demand for this attractive offering of clean hided cattle was good. The lighter cattle are getting harder to find making the market for them more active than last week. Cattle weighing over 800 lbs were really actively sought after. Several loads of cattle over 850 lbs today. The CME Live Feeder Market was higher along with corn. Slaughter cows were unevenly steady. Bulls to few to make a meaningful comparison.
