As filed

Compared to the auction from last week, feeder steers under 600 lbs 5.00-12.00 higher, over 600 lbs steady on limited comparisons. Feeder heifers under 600 lbs steady, over 600 lbs steady to 3.00 lower. Light calves suitable for summer grazing are easy to sell, with the feedlot ready yearlings more difficult to market due to high feed costs and an expected lower finished price. Demand moderate to good and supply moderate.
