Compared to the last sale two weeks ago feeder steers 550 to 600 lbs. were 4.00 higher; 650 to 700 lbs. were 2.00 lower and 700 to 800 lbs. were 6.00 to 9.00 higher. Feeder heifers 450 to 500 lbs. were 8.00 higher; 550 to 600 lbs. were 12.00 higher and 600 to 700 lbs. were 3.00 to 10.00 higher. Due to storm last night and the road closers there were not as many buyers in attendance but those that came bid very well to fill orders. Todays offering had several load lots of steers and heifers with many quality strings of feeders. Most feeders were in light to moderate flesh condition.
