Compared to last week feeder steers below 650 lbs. were 6.00 to 13.00 higher and steers 650 to 800 lbs. were 6.00 to 8.00 higher. The only measurable feeders heifers were 600 to 650 lbs. that were 1.00 lower. Good demand for todays offering with higher prices paid for the many load lots in the offering. More buyers in attendance today and the fact that the weather has gotten better so trucks could be attained to move those feeders purchased. Most feeders were in moderate to moderate plus flesh condition.
