Compared to the last reported sale three weeks ago feeder steers 500 to 550 lbs. were 12.00 higher; 550 to 600 lbs. were 3.00 higher; 600 to 700 lbs. were steady to 8.00 higher and 700 to 800 lbs. were steady to 1.00 higher. Feeder heifers 500 to 600 lbs. were 6.00 higher and 600 to 700 lbs. were steady to 4.00 higher. Many nice strings of feeders today and many load lots in the offering. More buyers in attendance helping push the bidding higher this week. Starting to see more back grounded feeders in todays sale with shots. Very good demand for todays offering. Most feeders were in light to moderate flesh condition. Expecting a large sale next week.
