Compared to last week: Feeder steers steady to 1.00 higher, over 900 lbs up to 3.00 higher. Feeder heifers steady to 2.00 higher. Demand good for feeder cattle. Steer calves 1.00-2.00 lower. Heifer calves unevenly steady. Demand moderate for calves. Supply included several nice loads of cattle off winter pasture. Much of Western Oklahoma in need of rain and chances are in the forecast later in the week.
