Compared to last week: Feeder steers and heifers traded mostly steady to 4.00 higher. Not enough comparable sales on steer or heifer calves for a market trend. Trading activity was moderate to active on good buyer demand. The majority of the supply consisted of load lots of yearling cattle carrying some flesh, along with short weaned calves, and some nice quality replacement cows. The larger run attracted additional buyer interest, with an increased buyer presence noted and fewer empty seats in the stands. Temperatures have warmed up to the 90's but spotty rain showers have kept pastures are still green.
