Compared to last Monday the feeder market was spotty but lower with an average
quality offering. Feeder steers and heifers 300-600 lbs were 5.00 to 10.00
lower or greater in spots with a good supply and with spotty demand, but the
600-650 lbs weaned and value added steers appeared firm and with good demand.
Slaughter cows and bulls were 3.00 to 5.00 lower with a moderate supply and
moderate demand.
