Compared to last week feeder steers 650 to 700 lbs. were 3.00 higher. Feeder heifers 700 to 750 lbs. were 3.00 lower. Other weights of steers and heifers did not have numbers for a comparison this week. Todays offering consisted of mostly small bunches of feeders. Numbers were down this week due to very strong winds the previous two days and calves were not moved to the market this week. Good demand for the small number of feeders this week. Feeders were in light to moderate flesh this week.
