Compared to last week: Feeder steers and heifers traded mostly 5.00 to 10.00 higher. Steer and heifer calves 10.00 higher on comparable sales. Not enough comparable sales on slaughter cows or bulls for a market trend. Trading activity was active on good buyer demand. Quality was mostly attractive with some favorable flesh condition and weigh-ups on the cattle. Some much needed rain accompanied by cooler temperatures has moved across the Southern and Western portions of the Panhandle with chances of rain all the way through Friday.
