Compared to last week; Feeder steers 500-550lbs 2.00 to 4.00 lower, 700-750lbs 6.00 to 10.00 lower, 800-900lbs 2.00 to 4.00 higher. Not all weights well tested for comparison in steers, no weights well tested for comparison in heifers. Good buyer demand on quality cattle. Flesh condition light to moderate plus.
