Compared to last Tuesday the feeder market was mixed on a mostly good quality offering. Feeder steers 450-550 were 3.00 to 5.00 higher and 600-700 steers were sharply higher with good demand. Several premiums were given for weaned and pre-conditioned packages of steers. Feeder heifers, however were 3.00 to 10.00 lower across the board with moderate demand as buyers were very selective on condition and quality. Slaughter cows were 2.00 to 4.00 higher with good demand and no comparison for slaughter bulls due to limited receipts.
