Compared to last Tuesday the feeder market was uneven and spotty with a good quality offering. Feeder steers and heifers were steady to 6.00 lower or greater in spots with a good supply and moderate demand. An increasing supply of fat bawling calves, and nearly a double digit drop in the futures market has limited the premiums buyers are will to pay and increased discounts for plainer or off colored cattle. Slaughter cows and bulls were 1.00 to 3.00 lower with a good supply and moderate demand.
