Compared to last week the feeder market was uneven with a moderate quality offering. Feeder steers 650 lbs and under were unevenly steady with a moderate supply and yearling steers appeared steady but with limited comparisons. Feeder heifers were unevenly steady as well today ranging from 3.00 higher to 4.00 lower throughout the weight classes with a good supply. Buyers were active today and showed good demand for weaned and growthy harder conditioned calves, while discounting the fatter bawling calves severely. Slaughter cows were 4.00 to 6.00 lower with a good supply and moderate demand, and slaughter bulls were mostly steady with good demand.
