Compared to last Saturday the feeder market was stronger with a good quality offering. Good quality feeder steers 550 lbs and under were sharply higher with a good supply, while the 600-850 lbs steers were steady to 3.00 higher with good demand. Feeder heifers 300 lbs and under were sharply higher with strong demand and the 450-650 lbs heifers were steady to 2.00 higher. No trends today on yearlings due to limited comparisons. There appeared to be more new crop calves in the offering today and buyers were active and willing to pay premiums for weaned packages and harder conditioned calves that are more suitable to go to grass. Slaughter cows and bulls were steady with a good supply and good demand.
