Compared to last Monday the feeder market spotty with a plainer than average quality offering. Feeder steer and heifer prices were unevenly steady today ranging from 5.00 higher to 5.00 lower in spots with a good supply and good demand for quality, and value added packages. Additionally, a much softer undertone was noted in the plainer quality and bawling calves as buyers are being more selective with there premiums and increasing the price spread in most weight classes. Slaughter cows and bulls were steady to 2.00 higher with a good supply and good demand.
