Compared to last week: Feeder steers 450-500 lbs 12.00 higher; 500-550 lbs 2.00 lower; 550-750 lbs 1.00-4.00 higher. Feeder heifers traded steady to 4.00 higher. Good to moderate demand seen today's offering. Quality was mostly attractive with a many drafts of weaned calves in the offering in light to moderate flesh. Next feeder cattle sale is scheduled for January 2, 2020.
