Compared to last week: Feeder steers under 750 lbs 5.00 to 10.00 higher, over 750 lbs 2.00 to 5.00 higher. Feeder heifers under 750 lbs 3.00 to 6.00 higher, except 450-500 lbs 5.00 to 10.00 higher, over 750 lbs steady to 2.00 higher. Very good demand for this nice offering of high quality, long time weaned steers and heifers. Flesh condition moderate to moderate plus, the mild weather is allowing cattle to easily gain weight and put on a little extra condition and this was evident on many consignments. The market was very active, higher CME Live Cattle contracts greatly helped to support the feeder cattle market.
