Compared to last week: Feeder steers 600-650lbs and 800-850 lbs steady; 650-800 lbs 3.00- 6.00 higher. Feeder heifers 2.00-3.00 lower. Good to moderate demand seen on today's offering of steers and heifers . Quality was mostly attractive in light to moderate flesh. Next sale is scheduled for February 13, 2020.
