Compared to last Tuesday the feeder market was mixed with a good quality offering. Feeder steers and heifers 600 lbs and under were mostly 2.00 to 6.00 lower with spots of sharply lower, while the older 700 lbs and over feeders appeared stronger but with limited comparisons. There was a good supply of feeders today and buyers were active and willing to pay premiums for quality weaned calves, while discounting fat, bawling calves severely. Slaughter cows were mostly 2.00 to 4.00 lower with a good supply and no trends on slaughter bulls.
