Feeder heifers 700-750 lbs 7 950-1000 lbs steady; 750-800 & 850-950 2.00 higher; 1000-1050 lbs 4.00 lower.Good to moderate demand seen on today's offering of feeder steers and heifers with many packages of tested open replacement heifers. Quality was mostly attractive with feeders in light to moderate flesh. Next sale scheduled for September 24, 2020.
