As filed

Compared to last week, Feeder steers on the lighter side from 350 to 475 lbs sold mostly steady, and the 500 to 600 lb steers sold 5.00 to 10.00 higher, and 650 lb and up traded mostly steady. Feeder heifers 4-500 lbs sold steady with 600 to 750 lb selling 5.00 to 10.00 higher. The supply was good with several pot loads in the offering, but colder temps held a few cattleman from getting calves loaded. Demand was moderate to good. Slaughter cows and bulls sold 1.00 to 3.00 higher.
