No recent sales for price comparisons on feeders or slaughter cows as the last meaningful feeder numbers were sold on Dec 13th. Since that time feeder contracts have made big advances which is helping to generate more dollars in feeder auctions. As is normally the case this time of year, buyers are after long-time weaned, grazing flesh cattle with extra feed and flesh usually not a paying proposition. Nice run expected next week including some bigger reputation consignments.
