Compared to last week feeder steers 550 to 650 lbs. were 2.00 to 4.00 higher; 650 to 750 lbs. were 1.00 to 4.00 higher. Feeder heifers 550 to 650 lbs. were 3.00 to 6.00 higher. Other weights not well tested for a comparison but most eights were higher than last week. Very good demand for todays offering and buyers were bidding higher to fill orders. Most feeders were in light to moderate flesh. Starting today to see some feeders that have been weaned 6 to 7 weeks and are desirable to the buyers. There will be one more Saturday sale next week. There will only be Wednesday sales after that.
