Compared to last week; Feeder steers 550-850lbs 1.00 to 6.00 lower, 850-900lbs 8.00 to 9.00 lower. Feeder heifers 550-600lbs 2.00 to 3.00 lower, 650-700lbs 3.00 to 7.00 higher. Not all weights well tested for comparison especially in heifer weights. Many strings of heifers available in today's offerings. Good buyer demand. Flesh condition light to moderate.
