As filed

Compared to last week, feeder steers and heifers under 550 lbs 10.00-15.00 higher, with the weights over 550 lbs steady to 2.00 higher. About twice as many cattle offered this week with buyers more aggressive, especially for the available light calves that will become more scarce as we move deeper into spring. Demand was good and supply moderate.
