Compared to last Tuesday's sale the market was uneven to mostly lower with a much softer undertone noted. Feeder steers 400 to 500 lbs were 3.00 higher and the 500 to 600 lbs steers were steady to 4.00 lower with fat bawling calves getting the most discount. Feeder heifers 500 lbs and under were 3.00 to 8.00 lower, and 600 lbs heifers were up sharply with good demand. Feeder bulls were 6.00 to 8.00 lower through all the weight classes with light interest in lower quality calves. Slaughter bulls were mostly steady and Slaughter cows were 4.00 to 6.00 lower, however low dressing leans were down sharply with a good offering and good demand.
