Today's receipts consisted of spring calves off the cow and very few strings of weaned calves. Compared to last week feeder steers 500 to 550 lb were 6.00 higher, 550 to 600 lbs. were 2.00 higher and 600 to 700 lbs. were steady to 1.00 higher. The only weights of heifers with numbers to make a comparison from last week were 600 to 650 lbs, that were 2.00 higher. Nice strings of feeders in today's sale with good buyer demand.
