Compared to last week: Feeder steers and heifers weighing between 500 and 600 pounds traded mostly 3.00 to 10.00 higher. Lighter weight steers and heifers and unweaned calves traded 4.00 to 10.00 lower. Long weaned cattle with at least two rounds of shots are still very much in demand as buyers are still concerned about large temperature fluctuations and calf health in the month of October. Not enough comparable sales on yearlings for a market trend. Trading activity was moderate on moderate to good buyer demand. Not enough comparable sales on slaughter cows or bulls for a market trend but a lower undertone was noted.
