Compared to last Tuesday the feeder market was stronger with a good quality
offering of mostly yearling aged cattle. Light weight feeder steers appeared
steady with a light test, while the 400- 600 lbs steers were steady to 6.00
higher or greater in spots with good demand. Yearling steers were 6.00 to
10.00 higher with a good supply and strong demand. Feeder heifers 600 lbs and
under were unevenly steady ranging from 4.00 lower to 4.00 higher with a good
supply and good demand. Slaughter cows were 2.00 to 4.00 higher with a good
supply and slaughter bulls were steady with good demand.
