Compared to last week: Feeder steers traded 3.00 to 6.00 higher. Feeder heifers traded 1.00 to 3.00 higher. Quality was once again very attractive with the majority of the supply consisting of large loads of cattle with very good condition straight off the wheat. Buyer demand was very good on active trading activity. Parts of the Panhandle received some much needed rain over the weekend, with another chance of a rain/snow mix tomorrow. However, the US Drought Monitor states that the majority of the state is still in desperate need of substantial moisture with drought conditions expanding over most of Texas and western Oklahoma where a mix of both short- and long-term issues are still embedded.
