Compared to last week; Not many weights well tested for comparison. Feeder steers 850-950 lbs 1.00 to 6.00 higher, 950-1000 lbs 7.00 higher. Feeder heifers 800-850 lbs steady, 900-950 lbs 3.00 higher. Good buyer demand on strings of yearling steers and heifers. Flesh condition light to moderate plus.
