Compared to last week receipts were low due to the ice storm yesterday which prevented more feeders coming to market. Feeder steers compared to last week 550 to 600 lbs. were 23.00 higher and feeder heifers 450 to 500 lbs. were 13.00 higher. Other weights not well tested for a comparison. Good demand for today's feeders especially the light weights to be put on pasture next spring. Most feeders were in light to moderate flash condition. The last feeder sale for the year will be next Wednesday December 17th.
