Compared to last week the feeder market was stronger with an average quality offering. Good quality feeder steers and heifers were mostly 3.00 to 6.00 higher with a good supply and good demand for weaned calves. Yearling steers appeared stronger as well but with limited head to head comparisons. Cooler weather conditions has helped to increase the premiums buyers are willing to pay for high quality calves, however the discount or price difference for plainer or off colored calves is getting wider. Slaughter cows were 1.00 to 3.00 higher with a good supply and slaughter bulls were mostly steady with good demand.
