Compared to last week the feeder market was steady to higher on most weights. The only weight class for a comparison were steers 800 to 850 lbs. which were steady from last week. Todays offering consisted of nice strings of yearlings along with the increase in spring calves. Good demand for all classes of feeders today with buyers bidding to fill orders. Most spring calves are coming to market not weaned. Most calves were in light to moderate flesh condition. Buyers are looking for spring calves with spring and fall shots.
