Special Feeder Cattle Sale Today. Compared to last week 500 - 600 lb feeder steers were 6.00 - 8.00 higher, seven weight steers were 4.00 - 7.00 higher. Today's heifer trade was fully steady with last week. Today, many groups of quality, reputation, vaccinated, weaned and off the cow feeder calves were offered. Light offering of yearling cattle. Demand was good for today's moderate supply. Trade was active.
