As filed

Compared to last week, Trade activity and demand good on feeder steers, moderate on heifers. Feeder steers under 650 lbs sold 4.00 to 10.00 higher, and steers over 650 lbs sold unevenly steady. Feeder heifers under 550 lbs sold 2.00 to 8.00 higher, over 550 lbs sold unevenly steady. Most of the offerings today were weaned 20-80 days, pre-conditioned and loaded with 1-4 rounds of vaccinations. The next available report will be when receipts warrant coverage.
