Compared to last week: Feeder steers under 600 lbs traded mostly 4.00 to 19.00 higher, while those over 600 lbs traded 8.00 to 13.00 higher. Feeder heifers under 600 lbs traded 3.75 to 11.75 higher and heifers over 600 lbs traded 2.50 to 5.75 higher. Trade activity and demand were moderate to good. Today's run consisted of mostly medium to larger size lots with multiple rounds of vaccinations and weaning times of 30 to 90 days. Those with weaning times over 60 days commanded the most interest. The next available report will be the first stock show special Friday, January 15, 2023.
